Hi, dev-db/percona-server-5.7.27.30-r1 ebuilds still conditionally depend on removed dev-python/mysql-python package. || ( $(python_gen_any_dep 'dev-python/mysqlclient[${PYTHON_USEDEP}]') $(python_gen_any_dep 'dev-python/mysql-python[${PYTHON_USEDEP}]') It'd be a good time finally removing the dep for dev-python/mysql-python since it's been last-rited and removed from ::gentoo tree.
But why? What's the deal with this? It's not all about Gentoo :-) I have copied this package to one of my overlays to be able to run tests like upstream is doing it.
Well I just want to see dev-python/mysql-python removal finish as I started it. Just did a grep today and was surprised by the results. As for rationale I guess imagine if CI was one day updated to check viability of all "|| ( )" choices (which I'd very much implore, since we have virtuals with dead packages). And for running tests, mysqlclient should be a pure straight-off fork and work with upstream's test cases. If not, it should be reported to percona-server's and mysqlclient's upstreams. All in all, this bug was just a "FYI reminder" about a removed package, I don't really mind if this is closed as WONTFIX. Saw it, reported it, it's out of my shoulders now :)

Hello, Is there any way to resurrect 5.7 branch? It's not EOL and still maintained upstream. In many workloads 5.7 is way faster than 8...
