Hi all,

According to the Fedora Packaging guidelines for Python [0], if a Python packagethat supports Python 3installs executables into //usr/bin/, then either both Python versions of the executables should be packaged, or only the Python 3 version, depending on the functionality they provide.

However, after going through all Python 3-compatiblepackages for Fedora, we have identified up to ~30 packages which provide both python2- and python3- subpackages with executables available only in the Python 2 version. For more information about obtaining the list refer to the GitHub issue [1]. The list of the affected packages is available here [3].

Before doing mass bug filing, I would like to post the list of packages here, to get feedback or ideas on how this can be fixed in a better way and encourage packagers to do the changes. If you are in Cc, then you are owing at least one of the affected packages. The guide for porting Python-based RPMs is available here [2] and you may refer to it for more instructions.

python-whisper

whisper as library is python3 compatible, the executables not yet (AFAIK).
