Description Marcus Meissner 2023-06-05 09:55:38 UTC

We received a report that python3-pip includes windows binaries.

rpm -ql python3-pip|grep exe
/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t32.exe
/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t64.exe
/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w32.exe
/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w64.exe

also affects pysthon310-pip and python311-pip

as this triggers security scanners, it would be good to not ship them.

Comment 1 Marcus Meissner 2023-06-05 10:59:09 UTC

they are also in the pip wheel in the python3xx packages.

This is an autogenerated message for OBS integration:
This bug (1212015) was mentioned in
https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1092512 Factory / python-pip

Comment 4 Markéta Machová 2023-06-19 08:24:57 UTC

Hi, I am confused. This bug report is about pip, but the mentioned list of .exe files comes from the Python standard library and it doesn't mention pip. Second, did Daniel's request fix the issue in the Factory for you and should I reproduce it in SLE? It did for me (there are no .exe files in `rpm -ql python310-pip-23.1.2-2.2.noarch.rpm`), but I am not sure whether we are talking about the same issue.

Comment 5 Markéta Machová 2023-06-19 10:43:03 UTC

In the end I inspired myself at https://smelt.suse.de/maintained/ and applied the change from https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1092512 accordingly. Sending bunch of requests and reassigning to security.
