Bug 437674 – >=dev-python/pycrypto-2.4.1 incorrectly disables Python3 support

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nobody 2012-10-09 06:42:29 UTC]

Ebuilds pycrypto-2.4.1.ebuild, pycrypto-2.5.ebuild, and pycrypto-2.6.ebuild all have:

RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS="3.* *-jython 2.7-pypy-*"

except according to this changelog https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/commit/32114297da2450af00c4612596bc15da4f6256f2#diff-1 PyCrypto has supported Python 3 since PyCrypto-2.4.1. Please change to:

RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS="*-jython 2.7-pypy-*"

and restore joy to the land of Python 3 (at least up to and including 3.2.*).

AFAICS this was fixed already.
