Hello Pythonistas.

We are about to update pip in rawhide to 21.3. It does in-tree builds by default and hence if your package sues pyproject-rpm-macros, you won't find it the built stuff in %{_pyproject_builddir} anymore.

The following packages will need changes:

python-numcodecs.spec 72:PYTHONPATH=$(ls -d %{_pyproject_builddir}/pip-req-build-*/build/lib.%{python3_platform}-%{python3_version}) sphinx-build-3 docs html

python-pikepdf.spec 60:PYTHONPATH=$(ls -d %{_pyproject_builddir}/pip-req-build-*/build/lib.%{python3_platform}-%{python3_version}) sphinx-build-3 . ../html

python-matplotlib.spec 302:PYTHONPATH=$(ls -d %{_pyproject_builddir}/pip-req-build-*/build/lib.%{python3_platform}-%{python3_version}) \

rpm-specs/python-pydata-sphinx-theme.spec 81:PYTHONPATH=$(ls -1d $PWD/.pyproject-builddir/pip-req-build-*) make -C docs html

Note that %{_pyproject_builddir} was prefixed with underscore exactly for this reason (packages that use it might need changes).

With pip 21.3+, replacing %{_pyproject_builddir}/pip-req-build-*/build with ${PWD}/build should do. However, that will loose compatibility with older pip.

We only plan to do this change in rawhide.
