Bug 609292 – dev-python/setuptools-30.4.0[python_targets_pypy3] fails to build - RuntimeError: Python 3.3 or later is required

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alessandro Barbieri 2017-02-13 19:13:14 UTC]

Trying to install dev-python/setuptools-30.4.0 with flag pypy3 fails because I have:

 pypy3
Python 3.2.5 (b2091e973da69152b3f928bfaabd5d2347e6df46, Feb 12 2017, 23:43:48)
[PyPy 2.4.0 with GCC 4.9.4] on linux2

and it wants python 3.3.

There is a way to put in the ebuild a check of the pypy3 version?

That PyPy3 version is ancient. I'm going to clean up the old versions and force a newer one in the eclass.
