#10562 Can we stop stable queued python-igraph from happening?
Closed: Can't Fix 3 years ago by kevin. Opened 3 years ago by frantisekz.

  • Describe the issue

There is an python-igraph update ( https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-40ace2f92b ) queued into Fedora 35 - Updates that breaks bunch of packages depending on it due to provides change from "python-igraph" to "igraph" ( https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-igraph/c/81076c47b1b0f629ec9ec754d1147c02f98d7546?branch=rawhide ). The version of python-igraph currently included in Fedora 35 is 0.9.7, the breakage was introduced with 0.9.8, the queued update is to 0.9.9 .

This breaks at least:
oraculum - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2042944
pyunicorn - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2042945

Unfortunately, the 34 update was pushed already.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Today (2022/01/20)

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Tomorrow (2022/01/21)

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    Change breaking "stable API/ABI" promise (by changing python module name) will happen in stable Fedora releases (34, 35). This is something that should've been coordinated with packages depending on this/communicated earlier, imo.


Sadly, it seems somehow there was a stable push 4 hours ago. ;(
