[Package Request] - Python3.8 to 3.11, autossh, iftop, R-4.2.2, Rstudio Server #281

Open RaresMiliton opened 1 year ago

What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2022? Please describe and include package name. On al2022 for Python the only available versions were 3.9 and 3.10. Now on al2023 only 3.9 is available, so 3.8, 3.10 and 3.11 are missing. Other packages that are missing: autossh, iftop and Rstudio Server

Is this an update to existing package or new package request? For now R version 4.1.3 is available, so 4.2.2 is the update request For the rest it is just new package request

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? iftop and autossh were previously available on AL2, and also Python3.8 through amazon-linux-extras

Number of users impacted My organization, in order to migrate to al2023

With the 2023.0.20230315 release of Amazon Linux 2023, which is now GA, we have python3.11 packaged along with a python3.11-pip package. We are not currently looking to also package Python 3.8 or 3.10 on Amazon Linux 2023. Is there something specific about these versions which you are looking for?

RaresMiliton commented 1 year ago

We are needing at least Python3.10 as our organization is using it, and it was already available with AL2022

stewartsmith commented 1 year ago

Python 3.11 is available in AL2023 at GA. Is the older 3.10 needed, or is 3.11 adequate?

RaresMiliton commented 1 year ago

Yes, 3.10 is still needed, along with 3.8 for packages compatibility, but if 3.8 is out of question, we would still require at least 3.10

Bumping this up. To support his, we currently have to compile python 3.10 on AL2023, which isn't ideal.

Packages which require python 3.11 include ansible-core and the mislabeled "ansible" package, which should be labeled "ansible_collections". Maintaining multiple python versions is quite painful. As an old multi-platform software builder, may I encourage you to update your underlying software to compatibility with python 3.11 ?

Python 3.8 is coming up on EoL in October 2024 as per https://devguide.python.org/versions/ thus it won't be included in AL2023.

I see some of python3.11 available for Amazon Linux 2023. The list of available python modules is not very large, and some packages like ansible now require python 3.12, which is not yet available for Amazon Linux 2023.
