Bug ID: 2083873 Summary: Review Request: python-antlr4-python3-runtime - ANTLR 4 runtime for Python Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: Package Review Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: nobody@fedoraproject.org Reporter: mhayden@redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: package-review@lists.fedoraproject.org Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Spec URL: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/mhayden/azure-cli-epel9/e... SRPM URL: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/mhayden/azure-cli-epel9/e... Description: ANTLR 4 runtime for Python Fedora Account System Username: mhayden
This is required in epel9 for the azure-cli backport in BZ 2077853.
There is an antlr4-project package which produces a package called python3-antlr4-runtime for Fedora 34+, but that package contains lots of other code with about 50-60 extra dependencies (mainly maven and java-related packages. The azure-cli package only needs the python bits from antlr4 to run.
This package would be for epel9 only and would not be added to Fedora branches. The antlr4-runtime maintainer mentioned in BZ 2080977 that he is not interested in maintaining antlr4-project in epel9 branches at this time. After looking at the long line of dependencies, I totally understand why. 🥵
If there's a better way to do this, please let me know. 😉
