Bug 163933 – dev-util/svnmailer needs dev-util/subversion built with USE=python

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nicolas Litchinko 2007-01-26 17:08:56 UTC]

dev-util/svnmailer requires (at least) the svn python module. This module is only available if dev-util/subversion has been built with the python USE flag.


Something along the lines of the following piece of code will ensure that subversion has been built with python support.

pkg_setup () {
    if ! built_with_use dev-util/subversion python ; then
        eerror "dev-util/subversion has been built without python support."
        eerror "Please enable the python USE flag and re-merge subversion."
        elog "You can enable this USE flag either globally in /etc/make.conf,"
        elog "or just for specific packages in /etc/portage/package.use."
        die "dev-util/subversion is missing python support"
    fi
}

Since the maintainer listed in metadata.xml is being retired, I'll take this one.

Fixed in dev-util/svnmailer-1.0.8-r1, thanks.
