CentOS7.1908 Major_Changes: Python 3 is now available. Installing the python3 package gives you the Python 3.6 interpreter.
We'll see if all the packages we need exist.
Extra packages we need:
python3-Cython
- trivial, just needs tweaks to the specfile for el7
python3-cairo[-devel]
is more of a problem, it is available in EPEL - alternatively, we could build --without-client
and not package the client, or find a 'cairo workaround'.
python3-gobject
- that's a bigger problem, again only available in EPEL, and this one we really can't do without
Let's wait until those packages become available in standard RHEL installations.
This is not going to ever happen according to RedHat Support. These dependencies are only available in RHEL8 and by extension in CentOS8
This is not going to ever happen according to RedHat? Support
Closing as 'wontfix', we can re-open if they change their mind.
