This is caused by an error in waf sources (wafadmin/Options.py). Simpliest fix is (line 26): -default_jobs=os.environ.get('JOBS',-1) +default_jobs=int(os.environ.get('JOBS',-1)) Patrick, please find out how to patch in-sources waf and report the issue upstream.
This package has old version of waf. Newer versions of waf already support Python 3. A simpler solution would be to call 'python_set_active_version 2'.
(In reply to comment #3) > This package has old version of waf. Newer versions of waf already support > Python 3. A simpler solution would be to call 'python_set_active_version 2'. The point is not in Python3 support, but in bug which is not seen on Python2, because it allows comparing 'str' and 'int'. Is it fixed in new version?
(In reply to comment #4) http://code.google.com/p/waf/source/detail?r=6880
(In reply to comment #5) Ok, then do what you think is right.
In bug #373311 I added a tevent-0.9.12 ebuild which at least works around it by following Afrevers advice from comment #3.
add #373311 to depend
By now, bumped tevent to 0.9.12 and the ebuild depends explicitly on python 2. Will wait until upstream updates waf
Fixed since 0.9.12 as far as I can tell, can't reproduce with .15, closing
