Description Salim Fadhley 2004-02-27 19:16:32 UTC 
The popular PHP database library 'adodb' (Ms style ADO api, but in a non-ms language) has recently been ported to python.

adodb-py-0.03.ebuild

Suggested category - dev-python
Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-28 04:44:45 UTC 
you can replace the src_install() with just 

DOCS="LICENSE.txt README.txt adodb-py-docs.htm"

it'll make the ebuild a little more simplier

eBuild for dev-python/adodb-py

This package is now in a stable release; the eBuild appears to work fine, I
just bumped it's version and modified it because the phplens team have
re-hosted on sourceforge. Any chance we could see this in the official portage
tree? Those of us who know this lib from PHP know that adodb is a really nifty
database library.
Comment 5 Rob Cakebread (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-09 20:59:04 UTC 
Thanks for the ebuild, Salim, added to CVS.
Comment 6 Salim Fadhley 2004-08-10 13:46:18 UTC 
Unlike PHP, python does not include modules for most types of database by default. Is there a way to check if use flag +MYSQL, and make may mysql-python a dependancy?

The ebuild works fine, but it's quite possible to install it without any working python database drivers; as a consequence adodb-py would be unusable.

Should this bug be re-opened or should I suggest this as a new item.
Comment 7 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-13 20:11:25 UTC 
reopen i guess? 

maybe they juse need USE flag conditional deps on mysql-python pgsql and other db access modules.

also, the HOMEPAGE needs to be changed to http://adodb.sourceforge.net/
Comment 8 Rob Cakebread (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-13 20:48:05 UTC 
Thanks guys. Fixed in CVS: added USE flags for mysql and postgresql, changed dependency on python to >=2.3 and changed homepage.
