django package can't find source

[traylenator]

Hi,

The django package fails with:

DownloadException: The specfile contains a Source URL with an unknown protocol; it shouldbe "https", "http", or "ftp".

despite:

spectool -g python-django.spec Downloading: https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/D/Django/Django-4.2.1.tar.gz

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2059544

Does the

%global ver 4.1.7 confuse things ... probably.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-django/blob/rawhide/f/python-django.spec

I can't see the attachment with the diff to check.

After trying the process manually it seems that the issue is in rpmdev-bumpspec command. It seems that it can't work correctly with the macros that are used in Django spec file. I cloned the dist-git repository and tried to run rpmdev-bumpspec --new 4.1.7 -c "Test" -u "test@test.com" python-django.spec and it did this changes in specfile:

And if you try to run the spectool -g on that:

error: line 6: unclosed macro or bad line continuation
RPM Failed to parse spec file.

This is where the error comes from. But I noticed that another thing, when the DownloadException error is thrown it wouldn't provide the patch file, I will fix that, but the issue with rpmdev-bumpspec needs to be solved upstream. @traylenator Could you create it there?

Closing this one as there is nothing I can do on the hotness side.

@Zlopez thanks for your investigation.

As for rpmbump it looks to be a case of the existing:

where I've just added an extra note.

Indeed changing how python-django is done may be easier.
