Bug 528658 – python-single-r1.eclass / CVS revision 1.29 - PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET=python2_7 unexpectedly dropped

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2014-11-08 15:41:15 UTC]

Suddenly I see /lots/ of rebuilds like this:

[ebuild   R   *] dev-util/catalyst-2.0.9999  USE="-ccache" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="(-python2_7%*)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7" 0 kB

Obviously emerging this will not end well.

axs made a change so that the python_single_target flags are not added to IUSE specifically when PYTHON_COMPAT contains only one python implementation.

Have you tried it? I was under the impression that it works fine, but we can revert if it causes problems.

I had some waf related issues, I see. I'm guessing now that it's just waf failing randomly as usual.

I saw a panicy comment on #gentoo yesterday about this change too..  think it's worth a news item, to reassure the masses all is well?

Maybe. On the other hand, packages being converted from single -> multi-impl would result in the same change...
