#8185 Retire epel7 python-oauthlib in favour of the rhel7 one
Closed: Fixed 5 years ago by mohanboddu. Opened 5 years ago by smooge.

  • Describe the issue

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1684830

Description of problem:
Taken from mailing list while trying to debug my problem with python-oauthlib not working through Koji/EPEL7 builds, but working perfectly fine using COPR/EPEL7.

...python-oauthlib is in both epel7 and rhel7 base repo.

Koji operates on source packages, so when both epel7 and rhel7 have the
same package name, epel7 wins. The epel7 python-oauthlib package does
not provide a python2-oauthlib subpackage (it only has python-oauthlib).
Because it's using the epel7 one, it ignores everything the rhel7 one
creates, so you don't get the python2-oauthlib from there either.

In Copr the newest package wins, so you get the rhel7 one because it's
much newer than the old epel7 one.

  • Credit to Kevin Fenzi for summarizing the above.

The request is to just retire the python-oauthlib

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Entire Koji/EPEL7 environment

How reproducible:

Every single time. Here is a failing package build using Koji:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=33139296

Here the exact same src.rpm building perfectly fine on COPR
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/build/861900/

Steps to Reproduce:
1. wget https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/lead2gold/apprise/epel-7-x86_64/00861900-python-apprise/python-apprise-0.7.3-1.el7.nuxref.src.rpm
2. <assuming you can build with koji>
3. koji build --scratch epel7 python-apprise-0.7.3-1.el7.nuxref.src.rpm

Actual results:

...
DEBUG util.py:490: BUILDSTDERR: No matching package to install: 'python2-oauthlib'
DEBUG util.py:490: BUILDSTDERR: Not all dependencies satisfied
DEBUG util.py:490: BUILDSTDERR: Error: Some packages could not be found.
...

Expected results:
RPM to build just fine

Retired and blocked python-oauthlib for epel7

Do note that when blocking epel packages that are also in rhel, we should also untag all the epel7 ones or they will still show up in the buildroot. ;(
