If your query is about support of more reason clang, the problem is https://github.com/ethanhs/clang/issues/4 , however it still works reasonably well with the openSUSE clang default version as seen by the tests. And is a reasonable drop-in replacement for the old ctypeslib. The number of open issues is irrelevant.

The python-clang project has a "last commit" which is even older ... should we delete it as dead? :P

The problem with Python 2 support of this library is only that the openSUSE python-clang package doesnt build Python 2. I kept the %oldpython because it is important that if anyone gets Python 2 working, they need to declare that conflict, otherwise a user may install this and clobber their existing ctypeslib and have difficulties getting the old one back again, especially if we then delete the :misc package). I expect it will get ripped out Jan 1, so it is just a precaution until then.

It is a generator of ffi code. I need it to regenerate ffi bindings for different arch in other Python packages, because usually Python packages included generated bindings for the x86_64 library only, and they fail when the non-intel shared lib omits some symbols, or the symbols are different on 32 vs 64 bit.
