Created attachment 312645 [details] the ebuild manuel will be a new ebuild, currently present in progress. manuel employs zope-component in tests. zope packages are absent in portage. For the sake of 1 zope-component test and patching a few lines of code, zope content can be skirted. The goal is to 'approve' this patching method is 'good' to pass upstream. ebuild also present in improvise.
Created attachment 312647 [details, diff] the patch that skirts zope
Why do we want manuel in the tree? IIRC we recently punted it; the only reason it was in the tree in the first place is because zope stuff depended on it.
*** Bug 417061 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I need xlutils in tree. It depends on testfixtures, it's tests depend on manuel. For now testfixtures has tests restricted to avoid that
This was dealt with a while back and manuel is now in the tree. Closing.
