https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1822971 --- Comment #62 from David Cantrell <dcantrell@xxxxxxxxxx> --- In that situation isn't the .egg-info not being a directory caught by this line in %files: %{python3_sitearch}/*egg-info/ The trailing slash tells RPM that it expects that glob to be a directory. I just tried it out locally where I did: echo "testing file" > %{buildroot}%{python3_sitearch}/blurfle And put this in %files: %{python3_sitearch}/blurfle/ An 'rpmbuild -ba' gave me: RPM build errors: Not a directory: /home/dcantrell/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/notcurses-1.3.0-1.fc31.x86_64/usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/blurfle With an exit code of 1. We have both the recommendation for "BuildRequires: python3-setuptools" as well as the %files entry for the egg-info directory in the Fedora packaging guide. Even without setuptools as a BR, the %files entry still guards the build. Good point and worth noting for other language ecosystems that have package managers and module systems of their own. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
