Hello,

I'd like to remove the following macros from rawhide:

  %py_build_egg
  %py2_build_egg
  %py3_build_egg

  %py_install_egg
  %py2_install_egg
  %py3_install_egg

Nothing in Fedora uses them.

I would also remove this page:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python_Eggs/
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python_Eggs

To my best knowledge, there are no packaged eggs in Fedora, and Python upstream
has moved away from eggs long time ago.

I'd like to focus on packaging wheels instead, via
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/pyproject-rpm-macros

Thoughts?


I always (only ever) used eggs to add updated modules as a secondary co-installable package. E.g python-stomppy4 in epel7

Is that possible with wheels as well? If so fab.
