It seems that pygoogle needs soappy to work. Yet soappy is not a dependency of pygoogle in the pygoogle ebuild. If you import google in the python interpreter it complains and throws an error. After emerge'ing soappy everything works fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.echo 'dev-python/pygoogle ~x86' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords 2.emerge pygoogle 3.try to import the pygoogle module in the python interpreter (import google) Actual Results: pygoogle complains about not finding soappy. I don't have the actual error message but its irrelevant since emerge'ing soappy fixes the issue. Expected Results: Not given an error. This is with pygoogle 0.6 which is masked. I didn't try the others but the author of pygoogle suggest using the newest release because the old ones may break if google changes something.
Created attachment 61362 [details] pygoogle-0.6-r1.ebuild This is a slightly modified ebuild of pygoogle. According to pygoogle.sf.net's documentation at least SOAPpy 0.11.3 is needed.
A modified version of soappy 0.9.7.3 is included with pygoogle in case you already have a version installed which may not work. Can you please paste the error message, I can't reproduce your error and let me know which version of python you're using? Thanks. You should have this file installed: /usr/lib/python2.x/site-packages/pygoogle/SOAP.py
I'm running python-2.3.5. This is what happens: >>> import google /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pygoogle/google.py:58: DeprecationwWarning: SOAPpy not imported. Trying legacy SOAP.py import GoogleSOAPFacade From my small code that I wrote it does seem to work but the above warning is generated every time the module is imported even in programs. Rob do you have soappy installed? If so, try uninstalling it. Then you will probably get the above warning as well.
Added SOAPpy dependency, since pygoogle.sf.net says that it's internal soappy is deprecated. Christopher: next time, please attach only the "diff -u" of the ebuild when doing small changes. It makes easier to see what has changed. Thanks for the notice guys.
