python-mock has been deprecated since Fedora 34 - 6 releases ago, but is still in use in many packages. We plan to go through the remaining usages and clean them up, with the goal of retiring python-mock from Fedora.
Owners, do not implement this work until the FESCo vote has explicitly ended. The Fedora Program Manager will create a tracking bug in Bugzilla for this Change, which is your indication to proceed. See the FESCo ticket policy and the Changes policy for more information.
REMINDER: This ticket is for FESCo members to vote on the proposal. Further discussion should happen in the devel list thread linked above.

That's a lot of packages. So I think it's unlikely that we'll be able to retire python-mock for F40. And the Change Proposal does not list this a goal. Maybe we can do that for F41.

Yeah, it's a soft goal as in - if we achieve zero usage before it's too late to retire a package, then we'll do that, if not, we'll try again for F41
After a week: APPROVED (+8, 0, 0)
