Hi everyone,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RemovePythonMockUsage has been
approved, so Michel and I will be working on identifying packages that
still depend on python3-mock. python3-mock has been deprecated for 6
releases in favor of unittest.mock from the Python standard library, and
we would like to finally retire the package. We will help with PRs, but
we would also appreciate help from packagers to fix their own packages.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DeprecatePythonMock#How_to_migrate...
provides guidance on how to accomplish that. Please reach out to us or
pop into
https://matrix.to/#/#python:fedoraproject.org if you have any
questions.
Here is a list of packages that currently depend on python3-mock at
runtime and/or buildtime:
60 of these packages build fine with a stub python-mock, so the
dependency can just be removed from those:

(Will generate the per-maintainer list later - and send out PRs to the
affected packages)
