Hi, based on the error I get with dev-util/gprof2dot compilation ==================== *snip* ==================== * Compilation and optimization of Python modules for CPython 3.1 ... *** Error compiling /usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/gprof2dot/gprof2dot.py ... File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/gprof2dot/gprof2dot.py", line 43 return u"%u\xd7" % (x,) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax [ !! ] ==================== *snap* ==================== I think that gprof2dot should be limited to Python 2. Cheers, Nico Reproducible: Always
Please post your `emerge --info' too and attach the entire build log.
I'm using Paludis and have no time to find out how to retrieve this data at the moment. If you emerge the package with Python 3 installed, I'm sure you'll see the same error message though. Feel free to close as invalid if that's not satisfactory.
Created attachment 253305 [details, diff] First try on a patch for Python 3 (without breaking Python 2) Review and testing wanted. (In case of no reply in 30 days I'll apply the patch to the package in Gentoo.)
Works for me.
I recommend sending this patch to upstream...

That is I think wrong. To my understanding in pkg_post{inst,rm} it's too late for catching errors anyway.
