I'm submitting this exception to allow python2-mlt to continue using python2 to build, as state in [2] python2-mlt is use by flowblade [1] was announce python 3 for flowblade 2.4 , but is not yet released 2.2 :( meanwhile we need python2-mlt

It seems to me that python2-mlt also needs Python at runtime, not just to build.

There are no other dependencies, and there is a plan.

meanwhile flowblade 2.4 has been released and packaged for RPMFusion.
so this exception is not anymore needed

sergiomb commented Dec 20, 2019

yes , I may remove python2-mlt if flowblade with python 3 works

adetiste commented Dec 20, 2019

it builds with python 3 only at the very least
