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.
@mgorny: Does the guide show what I need to do in this package upstream to make this change, or can you open a pr upstream for me to make the change? Thanks, William

This includes using BDEPEND instead of DEPEND. Avoids a runtime dependency on setuptools, which has never been used -- in general software never uses `import setuptools` at runtime, and pybugz doesn't actually make use of pkg_resources either. - migrate to pep517 build - update EAPI 7 -> 8 Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/910045 Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/35177 Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz93@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: William Hubbs <williamh@gentoo.org> www-client/pybugz/pybugz-0.13-r3.ebuild | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ www-client/pybugz/pybugz-9999.ebuild | 10 ++++------ 2 files changed, 36 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)
