Description Thomas Capricelli 2014-12-05 03:30:29 UTC
pypdf has been in the tree for long but is now officially dead :
    http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/

The last release (1.13) was 4 years ago.

The kinda official next-generation is the fork called 'pypdf2', as mentionned on the link. This is what i'm requiring an ebuild for.

their link to github is dead, but the important links are :

ebuild

Here's a very simple ebuild done from the pyPdf one. Works perfectly here (once the manifest is created).

I use the "dev-python" category.

This is pretty trivial actually, probably thanks to the python eclass.

*PyPDF2-1.24 (03 Jan 2015)

  03 Jan 2015; Ian Delaney <idella4@gentoo.org> +PyPDF2-1.24.ebuild,
  +metadata.xml:
  ebuild written by me, Jan 3. Required in the bump of xhtml2pdf-0.0.6 to
  substitute dev-python/pyPdf, of which PyPDF2 is a fork.  The original name
  using camel case is retained since it poses no problem once installed.
  Conversion to lowercase causes far more pain than it cures.
