The packages are stuck on py3.6 which means they will be pain once we switch to 3.7. Please test them on 3.7 *and* 3.8 (so we don't to revisit this in a few months), and update PYTHON_COMPAT appropriately. If it doesn't work, please either fix it, remove Python or issue last rites. Please consider this urgent. Also, it's 6 versions behind upstream. Also, it's missing tests. Please note that upstream test running script doesn't return errors properly, so it's useless. Overall, this package looks horribly bad quality and has no revdeps. I'd suggest treecleaning it.
Yeah, this package should be lastrite'd. My use for it has gone away over a year ago (hence my neglet). @treecleaners, we can lastrite this sooner rather than later.

Well then there is dnslib 0.9.14 on github. https://github.com/paulc/dnslib the pypy site refers to that one as well. That version has in it's release notes fixes for Python v3.9 wrt. revdep: certbot-dns-standalone is built on this library. although that proposed ebuild is largly ignored. See: #702740
rename the ebuild to 0.9.14 and adding python3_7 builds fine, i also added python3_8 but didn't build that one yet. [ebuild R ] dev-python/dnslib-0.9.14 PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_6 python3_7 -pypy3 -python3_8"
The primary problem with dnslib is that the tests aren't written to be run in automated environment but rather by human who reads whether they fails. Also, the code looks just horrible but I guess it's a matter of personal taste.
Ok i opened a case on github: https://github.com/paulc/dnslib/issues/12
According to the dev there is automated testing, From github issue: There is already an automated testing script which tests against multiple versions of python (see run_tests.sh) Also if you look in .github/workflows/test.yml there is a set of automated CI tests which run on each commit (essentially the same as run_tests.sh)
