I'd say this is a dupe of my bug 299199, but see the note there. Also, it seems there are a few fixes in cvs, but no release for the last 6 years. Some of the latest mails on its list seem to confirm soappy being dead in favor of suds. Unfortunately, soappy is not leaf, there's still a couple packages depending on it. Fixed in Progress Overlay on 2011-07-07. (Dependency on dev-python/pyxml deleted.) Created attachment 294529 [details, diff]

Do some testing soon
(In reply to comment #3) > Created attachment 294529 [details, diff] [details, diff] > ebuild patch files/soappy-0.12.5-xml.patch combo > > patch has > 1. ebuild patch > 2. files/soappy-0.12.5-xml.patch > Do some testing soon That patch is pretty much broken - just what is it supposed to fix ? As I said in bug 299199 and as comment 2 seems to confirm, dev-python/pyxml dependency is redundant to simply dev-lang/python[xml]. 22 Dec 2011; Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org> soappy-0.12.5.ebuild: Delete dependency on dev-python/pyxml (bug #367751). Clean ebuild. Backport fixes from Progress Overlay. Patch by Arfrever. |
This package specifies dependency on dev-python/pyxml. Please test this package with dev-lang/python-2.7.1-r2:2.7 or >=dev-lang/python-2.7.2_pre20110515:2.7, which require explicit calling of xml.use_pyxml() before using PyXML. If this package actually needs PyXML, then modify all modules/scripts of this package, which import xml module. The following code should be added before first import of anything from xml module: import xml if hasattr(xml, "use_pyxml"): xml.use_pyxml() This code works with previous versions of Python, so no changes in dependencies are needed.
