based on advice here:

https://discuss.python.org/t/tool-to-build-a-rpm-package-backed-by-pep-517/4020/16

led to looking at https://packit.dev, and now created a copr ( https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/bitgrazer/MetPX-sr3/ )
project? ... should figure out how to build RPM's automagically based on github commits... automate rpm generation.

There is supposed to be a way to hook things together so that github commits can trigger rpm generation.

So the basic problem is that whenever I build an RPM on rhel8 (most important target os atm) many dependencies are missing,
so I edit setup.py to remove those dependencies and let the user know (built sr3 features #741) so it does not just build as-is.

So far redhat environments have always been missing many dependencies (except fedora39, built experimentally in #740 ... with the issue740_hatchling branch, but that does not work at all with python3.6 ... which is on redhat 8.

following the comment from https://discuss.python.org/u/webknjaz in the python packaging thread mentioned in the initial post of this issue ... looked into packit.dev, which seems to use https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/ ... which requires a fedora account... ok, then I look into creating a package in copr, but which wants me to use tito... https://github.com/rpm-software-management/tito... that's as far as I've gotten so far.

note that python on redhat8 and ubuntu18 are deprecated... so security situation is a bit unclear.

so far, have merged a .spec file... which is a step along the way to any of these.
