Bug 196486 – dev-util/bzr doesn't require {c,}elementtree with python 2.5

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description James Rowe 2007-10-20 05:41:10 UTC]

If you use python 2.5, then the celementtree dependency is unneeded.
As far back as 0.15, and maybe much further, the conditional imports
have been in the source.

  The attached patch makes the dependency conditional depending on the
python version, and while it is only for 0.91-r1 the patch applies
correctly with a smidgen of fuzz to all the other ebuilds.

Thanks,

James

  Just out of curiosity, and while I have your attention is there any
reason the paramiko dep can't be conditional on USE=sftp?  bzr handles
the situation gracefully, and it is only required for SFTP support.

  I'm maybe missing some good reason though, as I only use bzr to dump
the history of a project that uses it in to another SCM.

Fixed celementtree dep and added sftp USE-flag. Thanks for contribution.

Um, maybe USE=curl and USE=sftp should be enabled by default.

...is that even possible with current portage?

FWIW, I agree.
