Default Python version macros
For situations when an application (i.e. not a library) is compatible with both Python 3 and Python 2, the default Python version should be used. Depending on Fedora release number the default Python version might differ. For packagers' convenience and better spec readability, the following set of macros is provided:
| Macro | Fedora >= 22 | Fedora <= 21 |
|---|---|---|
| python_default_version | 3 | 2 |
| __python_default | %{__python3} | %{__python2} |
| python_default_sitelib | %{python3_sitelib} | %{python2_sitelib} |
| python_default_sitearch | %{python3_sitearch} | %{python2_sitearch} |
| python_default_devel | python3-devel | python2-devel |
| python_default_prefix | python3- | python- |
| python_default_prefix_only3 | python3- | (empty string) |
Note: The Fedora release since when Python 3 is the default might change.
Example spec file using this approach:
Name: fooapp
Version: 1.0.0
Release: 1%{?dist}
Summary: This is just an example
License: MIT
URL: http://example.com/
Source0: http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/f/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
BuildArch: noarch
# python3-devel or python2-devel
BuildRequires: %{python_default_devel}
# python3-setuptools or python-setuptools
BuildRequires: %{python_default_prefix}setuptools
# python3-pytest or pytest
BuildRequires: %{python_default_prefix_only3}pytest
# Unfortunately with weird package names, we have to do if/else
%if %{python_default_version} > 2
BuildRequires: python3-cairo
Requires: python3-cairo
%else
BuildRequires: pycairo
Requires: pycairo
%endif
