Bug 152282 – Patch for cheetah to lay a .egg - dev-python/cheetah-2.0_rc6.ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tim Cera 2006-10-21 11:29:56 UTC]

Currently dev-python/cheetah-2.0_rc6 doesn't lay a .egg which means that ez_setup/.egg packages that depends on cheetah, like paste and turbogears don't find cheetah whether it is installed or not.

All that has to be done is to add the 'ez_setup.py' file and a few lines to the 'setup.py'.  I did this all from a patch file.

Actually, there is already an 'ez_setup.py' so the patch just adds the lines to 'setup.py'.

I now get around this problem by removing the 'requires.txt' when installing python code that uses setuptools (for example 'paste' and 'turbogears').  In Gentoo the ebuild should specify the dependencies, not setuptools.
