I use psycopg2 for postgres access in my pyramid web-app, and like most (all?) python developers all the dependencies are in a virtualenv, including psycopg2 itself. This means, of course, that the psycopg2 wheel is precompiled. With the recent glibc-2.26 update, I can no longer import psycopg2.

I've got spyder-4.0.1-2 and python-spyder-kernels-1.8.1-1 installed. They're not self-compiled, they just came in as regular repo updates (on 22nd February 2020). However the current repo version of both is 3.3.6-2 and 0.5.2-4. Looks like a rollback of spyder related packages took place? Shouldn't
