Description Alexander E. Patrakov 2013-01-05 08:20:39 UTC

[I have not actually tried to build this package]

gnome-extra/hamster-applet-2.32.1 has less restrictive RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS variable than dev-python/pygtk on which it depends. This can't be right.

gnome-extra/hamster-applet: RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS="3.*"
dev-python/pygtk: RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS="2.4 2.5 3.* *-jython 2.7-pypy-*"

So I think that you should copy the RESTRICT_PYTHON_ABIS variable from pygtk to hamster-applet ebuild.

Reproducible: Didn't try

This is mostly wontfix until we decide whether to work on gnome2 packages using python switch to python-r1 eclasses or not.

In practice, I'd like to do this as this would make this kind of discrepancies go away but on the other hand, it is a non-negligible workload to handle.

I think it doesn't deserve the effort since this package will go away with Gnome3
