Description Phill 2011-05-01 21:26:25 UTC
I have a new install; I have emerged wicd:

[ebuild  N    ] net-misc/wicd-1.7.1_beta2-r3  USE="X gtk ncurses nls pm-utils (-ioctl) -libnotify" 

wicd-curses fails with 

# wicd-curses 
  File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 1031
    except Exception, e:
                    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


wicd-client fails (in wmaker) with error 


# wicd-client 
  File "/usr/share/wicd/gtk/wicd-client.py", line 77
    print 'Unable to load tray icon: Missing both egg.trayicon and gtk.StatusIcon modules.'
                                                                                          ^

Hmm, so there is nothing that prevents the user from running a software with 
RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS="3.*"
with python-3 anyway?  What is it good for then? Why isn't that handled automagically?

In any case, why did you restrict *-jython in your patch?

Build system of this package hardcodes /usr/bin/python in shell scripts regardless of Python version used during building.

There was a problem during attempt of installation for Jython.

hi, not sure if I was supposed to, but I updated the ebuild with the patch and emerged the wicd again, ensuring it was using the ebuild in the custom overlay; the errors are more numerous; not sure if I need more flags on dbus:

Comment 5 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-04 11:18:02 UTC
(In reply to comment #4)

These exceptions are not related to original problem.
Comment 6 Phill 2011-05-04 18:28:11 UTC
sorted; just had to restart the wicd after reboot; suspect boot order issue from parallel start, I'll try ordered start and submit feedback in a new bug report if needed.

Otherwise, I can confirm this patch works for me, thanks muchly :)
Comment 7 Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-07 19:23:02 UTC
Should be fixed in -r4. Please reopen if not.  Thanks for the patch arfrever!
