After python upgrade, sketch was broken so I re-emerged dev-python/Imaging ans sketch. Now sketch fails with : /usr/lib/sketch-0.6.15/Sketch/Graphics/graphics.py:1245: FutureWarning: hex/oct constants > sys.maxint will return positive values in Python 2.4 and up self.gc = widget.CreateGC(foreground = 0xFFFFFFFF, Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/sketch", line 34, in ?

Created attachment 21944 [details, diff] Patch for sketch 0.6.15 with python 2.3
Created attachment 21945 [details] Ebuild to apply the patch above
Oliver, where is the patch from? Is it from the sketch-devs? If not, can you please send it in parallel to the sketch-devs, because we want all patches included in gentoo to go back to the original devs.
Hello The patch comes from FreeBSD port tree, so quite similar to portage. Mandrake solved the problem using 0.6.16pre2. There's no mention of this version on the homepage, so I guess it's located on Savannah, which is closed right now.
I've added skencil-0.6.16_pre3 to the tree with KEYWORD="~x86", which is the new name of sketch. skencil works fine with latest python. For now, you have to manually unmerge sketch and merge skencil. I'll make an automatic update as soon as I'll move stencil to stable x86.
should be done now.
