Bug 208186 – dev-python/ipython-0.8.2: fix Emacs dependency

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Rodrigo Lazo 2008-01-30 16:39:19 UTC]

ipython.el depends on python-mode.el and is not compatible with python.el included with emacs-22. ipython.el header says "Adds support for IPython to python-mode.el". Both python-mode.el and python.el brings support for python into emacs, but are very different on its internals. http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/PythonMode

Looks like the dependency from 0.8.1-r1 should be restored, i.e.:

-       emacs? ( || ( app-emacs/python-mode
-               >=virtual/emacs-22 ) )
+       emacs? ( virtual/emacs
+               app-emacs/python-mode )

> +       emacs? ( virtual/emacs

In this case, could it be possible on python-mode not to force dependency on pymacs?

Pymacs is needed for pycomplete.{py,el}, so we would have to make installation of pycomplete in app-emacs/python-mode optional. For example, enable it only for USE="python".

I've added a "pymacs" local USE flag in app-emacs/python-mode-1.0-r1, making the dependency on app-emacs/pymacs optional.

Done. Thanks.
