Bug 411083 – net-proxy/http-replicator-3.0.0-r2: repcacheman fails due to python-3 incompatibility

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Aidan Taniane 2012-04-06 22:29:06 UTC]

As per the summary, the repcacheman tool provided fails, as http-replicator was developed for python-2, which is no longer included in Gentoo, and the http-replicator ebuild does not pull it in either.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge http-replicator
2. Run repcacheman to populate http-rep's cache
3. ???
4. Profit!
Actual Results:  
hostname ~ # repcacheman
  File "/usr/bin/repcacheman.py", line 33
    print"Must be root"
                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Expected Results:  
Populated http-rep's cache and deleted cached tarballs.

-------------------------

Fresh system install.  There's no python-2.7 included, meaning python-2 applications like http-replicator-3.0.0 wont work.  So http-rep needs to pull in python-2, or if there's a python-3 version of http-rep, that needs to be in the tree and stabilised asap.

Umm, when did 'completely broken' become "normal"?

[Comment 2 Christoph Junghans (RETIRED) 2012-05-04 01:35:27 UTC]

Fixed in 3.0-r3.
