Created attachment 352532 [details] tail of a build log displaying failures of test_pyflakes.py This package makes twisted look like a walk in the park. I actually made 2 distinct versions of this given there are so many issues need cleaning up.

Thirdly; + sed -e 's:^from .utils:from utils:' -i tests/test_interfaces.py A simple fix due to the testsuite not co-operating with this relative path in test_interfaces.py. Fourthly; Now the troublesome hard part, testsuite. To pass, the testsuite requires removal of tests/{test_pyflakes.py,test_pep8.py,test_ui.py} using the partially complete tarball. Using the complete tarball, test_pep8.py goes from failing everything to passing all, test_Delegate.py passes in this version. It would not be possible to attain this without the COMPLETE tarball. Testsuite then yields 3 fails from test_ui.py and test_pyflakes.py moves from 1 fail from 203 tests to FAILED (failures=15) from 410 tests. See the $URL, pending whether an account in async bugzilla is needed. Fifthly; KEYWORDS.dropped 4 dev-python/kiwi/kiwi-1.9.34.ebuild: ppc ppc64 dev-python/kiwi/kiwi-1.9.35.ebuild: ppc ppc64 dev-python/kiwi/kiwi-1.9.38-r1.ebuild: ppc64 dev-python/kiwi/kiwi-1.9.38-r2.ebuild: ppc64 Note ppc64 was dropped @ 1.9.34, another instance of a dropped keyword creeping back in. A decision need be made whether to request re-keywording of ppc, ppc64
FWIW, it seems most recent development is done here: https://github.com/stoq/kiwi, but they have no active issue tracker. It might be worth joining #pygtk on irc.gnome.org to see if we can engage the maintainers a little more. For now, I think we should just disable the test suite. I think this probably has very few users on Gentoo anyway. There are just two rdeps, dev-util/gazpacho (the Kiwi homepage says "Gazpacho support has been removed in version 1.9.29") and media-video/flumotion (latest maintenance in Gentoo is from March 2011). So we could just ask ikelos to remove the kiwi dep from gazpacho and ask the gstreamer team if they'd mind getting rid of flumotion, then lastrite all of it together.
right thanks Dirkjan. Hmm; you mean look to lastriting kiwi once those rdeps are sorted yes? The issue tracker appears to be a bugzilla @ http://bugs.async.com.br/ where I finally filed. *kiwi-1.9.38-r1 (05 Jul 2013) 05 Jul 2013; Ian Delaney <idella4@gentoo.org> +kiwi-1.9.38-r1.ebuild: revbump, migrate -> distutils-r1 according to guides from Bug #475636, closes said Bug
