I've rewritten big chunks of python-updater to fix outstanding issues. Most importantly being the wrong sorting of deps that often breaks down- or upgrades. I've also fixed a bunch of other issues like: - supporting long and short options - new option to ignore versions and instead remerge based on SLOTs - new support for selecting package manager (support portage, pkgcore and paludis but defaults to portage) - updated to support python-2.5 as old version so downgrades from 2.5 are possible and a bunch of minor things. Before unleashing it to the world I'd like a bit of testing + some discussion on how we can best transition from the dev-lang/python provided python-updater to a stand-alone ebuild. At least we need to consider the COLLISION_PROTECT problems. I'll probably ask archs to ~keyword it in a few days if no important bugs shows up.
It doesn't install anything. You need: src_install() { + cd ${WORKDIR} newsbin ${P} ${PN} }
Fixed.
Arch teams: I've split out python-updater from new python versions and rewritten big parts of it as mentioned in comment #1. The new python versions depends on this split out version so please test and keyword it.
