Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-07-08 06:48:35 UTC
This package still uses the legacy eclass code paths.  These paths are deprecated and pose a significant maintenance cost.  Please update the package to use PEP517 build mode.  For more information, please see the Python Guide, particularly; https://projects.gentoo.org/python/guide/migration.html#migrating-to-pep-517-builds

[Adding this comment en-masse, sorry for the noise, but it's important.)

1. Please take particular care to check file diffs before/after, possibly using `iwdevtools`. Keep a particular eye out for e.g. config files now missing from /etc and instead being in /usr/lib/python*/site-packages, etc.

2. Please make sure to do the migration in a new revision in ~arch, partly because of 1.

Final ping.  Please note that we will not hesitate to last rite low profile packages over this.

    dev-libs/liblouis: add 3.29.0
    
    * Due to scripts installed with liblouis such as lou_maketable requiring
      python bindings it makes simpler to build python bindings
      unconditionally with a single python target.
    * Enable python3.12 and python3.13, use PEP517 (addresses egg-info bug).
    * Remove libyaml automagic.
    * Install lou_maketable script dir into libexec instead of bin. This differs
      from what other distributions do as Fedora and Debian remove these scripts,
      Arch has it unchanged.
