#16251 — Proposed Mass Bug: Missing dependencies on python3-setuptools

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

In October last year, we added python3-setuptools as a dependency of dh-python,
to ease the transition from distutils.

I think it's time to unwind this.

I did a test-rebuild of everything that depends on dh-python without depending
on setuptools:

cat debian_dists_unstable_*_source_Sources \
  | grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends,Build-Depends-Arch,Build-Depends-Indep \
  -s Package,Build-Depends,Build-Depends-Arch,Build-Depends-Indep \
  -e '(^| )(dh-python|pybuild-plugin-pyproject|dh-sequence-python3|lava-dev|pypi2deb)(,| |$)' \
  | grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends,Build-Depends-Arch,Build-Depends-Indep \
  -v -e '(^| )python3-setuptools(-rust|-scm)?(,| |$)' \
  -s Package -n | sort -u > packages

The rebuild found 340 regressions, dd-list attached.
With the 3.13 transition around the corner, I don't intend to make this
change right now, but we should get the bugs filed. It's easy enough to
re-test again, later.

I propose filing a simple mass-bug at severity Important:

please

  - user-tag
  - add tags sid trixie
  - add a phrase to the bug reports, that the severity
    might be increased before the trixie release.

Hi debian-python (2024.09.04_15:25:17_+0000)

Filed 418 bugs rather than the 340 odd I expected. Due to a mistake,
packages that FTBFS for other reasons may have got a bug too. I'll go
clean that up now.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=debian-python@lists.debian.org&tag=dh-python-no-setuptools

Final text:

Severity: important
User: debian-python@lists.debian.org
Usertags: dh-python-no-setuptools
Tags: sid, trixie

This package failed build from source when test-built against a version
of dh-python without a python3-setuptools dependency.

distutils is no longer part of the Python standard library, since 3.12.
But a minimal version of it becomes available when the
python3-setuptools package is installed.

Please add a Build-Depends on python3-setuptools to your package, or
migrate the package's build system away from setuptools/distutils.

If you run into any difficulties, please raise them on
debian-python@lists.debian.org.

This bug has been filed at "important" severity, as the change hasn't
been made in dh-python yet, but this may be raised to RC before the
trixie release.

Thanks,

Stefano

Hi debian-python (2024.09.05_15:13:45_+0000)
> Filed 418 bugs

Uploaded a version of dh-python to experimental with the things I want
to remove removed.

Should have done that first, and mentioned it in the mass-bug, so people
would know what they can test against.... Too late now.
