This is not defined until python3-devel is installed, so it has to be
conditionally evaluated just like the previous python3_version
example.

ALso note that the comparison using python3_version does not work on
EPEL 9 as well, and python3_version_nodots is required.

@churchyard Not sure if you are still watching these; does this look OK to you?

For context, the EPEL 9 issue came up when working on a PR updating python-flit-core in EPEL 9:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-flit-core/pull-request/8#comment-148127

@churchyard commented pointing to an upstream RPM bug https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-flit-core/pull-request/8#comment-148677

Hmm.

  • I agree with the 0%{? thing -- +1 to that.
  • I don't understand the 310 > 38 change.

As far as whether or not we say this is needed on EPEL 9: I am not sure. The given example works fine. RPM only breaks when the version thing is used in complex conditionals.

This was finally reported to RHEL 9: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-15688
