It is one solution but it would of be better if EL folks add the
providers into python-foo ... i.e. without RHEL collaboration things
(aka speeding up Fedora development) will be more difficult.
which
met with favor from a number of folks, I went ahead and set up four
dummy packages:
python2-setuptools (in EPEL6)
python2-sphinx (EPEL7)
python2-pytest (EPEL7)
python2-six (EPEL7)
I'll do EPEL6 versions of the latter tomorrow. (I forgot that I can
only request one branch with the initial repo request. Oops. In my
defense, that's a really odd restriction.)
These should, once actually pushed to stable, allow you to avoid
having
to add conditionals to depend on setuptools/sphinx/pytest/six in
EPEL.
If this works out for folks, I (or anyone else) can potentially add
similar dummy packages for every package which needs one. Anything
to
cut down on those conditionals.
Please check my work, test and give karma as appropriate. They seem
to
work fine for me when I set up a local repo and do some mock builds,
but
I only have access to Centos so I guess anything is possible.
