Description Juergen Rose 2011-05-03 13:50:52 UTC

python-updater complains:
...
 * "/usr/local/portage/dev-python/pygsl/pygsl-0.9.4.ebuild":
 * Deprecation Warning: Usage of distutils.eclass in packages not supporting installation
 * for multiple Python ABIs in EAPI <=2 is deprecated and will be banned on 2011-06-01.
 * The ebuild needs to be fixed. Please report a bug, if it has not been already reported.

pygsl-0.9.5 is installed:

rose@lynx:/home/rose(2)$ emerge -pvD pygsl 

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] dev-python/pygsl-0.9.5  USE="examples" 0 kB


Why is pygsl-0.9.4.ebuild not removed by 'emerge --sync', 'emerge -uvDN world' or 'emerge --depclean'?



Reproducible: Always

"/usr/local/portage/dev-python/pygsl/pygsl-0.9.4.ebuild"

^^ That is an overlay, specifically /usr/local, and emerge --sync will not touch local files that you placed there.

Thanks Jeremy,

removal of /usr/local/portage/dev-python/pygsl solved the issue.
