Bug 347153 – Running python-updater after installation of python-2.7.1 is removing python-2.6 code

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Graham Murray 2010-11-29 09:37:20 UTC]

The emerging of dev-lang/python-2.7.1, set the default python version to 2.7. When running python-updater following this, for packages which support both python 2 & 3, only python-2.7 & python-3.1 support are being built.

gmdev ~ # eselect python list
Available Python interpreters:
  [1]   python2.6
  [2]   python2.7 *
  [3]   python3.1

gmdev ~ # emerge --info
WARNING: One or more repositories have missing repo_name entries:

	/var/lib/layman/liquidx/profiles/repo_name

NOTE: Each repo_name entry should be a plain text file containing a
unique name for the repository on the first line.

We're in the process of turning that behavior off these very days.

Please

1) Add a line like

     USE_PYTHON="2.6 2.7 3.1"

   to /etc/make.conf.  Put any slot in there that you want Python modules for.

2) Run python-updater.
   After that, any Python package should be available with the biggest
   possible subset of what you specified.

3) Report back, how that worked for you.

I will now address two off-topic things I spot in your other information.

As I can see here

http://overlays.gentoo.org/dev/liquidx/timeline?from=12%2F01%2F10&daysback=10000&changeset=on&wiki=on&update=Update

that overlay was last updated four years ago - it's maintainer retired since then.  Please contact me (sping@g.o.) or the overlays team (overlays@g.o.) telling what ebuilds are of use to you from that overlay, so we can migrate that to a more vivid place.  Thanks!

You may want to update your Kernel to 2.6.36-gentoo-r3, in case you forgot to update.  Otherwise just ignore me.

Best,



Sebastian
