Bug 467894 – dev-python/dbus-python-1.1.1-r1[test]: broken dependencies with with python3.3

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Michael Palimaka (kensington) 2013-04-29 17:10:49 UTC]

dbus-python-1.1.1-r1[test] (stable) supports python3.3, and depends on pygobject. The earliest version of pygobject supporting python3.3 is 3.4.2-r1 which is unstable.

This causes errors like this:

# required by dev-python/dbus-python-1.1.1-r1[test]
# required by dbus-python (argument)
=dev-python/pygobject-3.4.2-r1 ~amd64

[Comment 1 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2013-04-30 03:53:29 UTC]

Would adding python_targets_python3_3 to eapi-5-files/use.stable.mask solve this?

It does prevent the error, but I am not sure that it is the right solution. Won't this problem still happen even when python3.3 is eventually stable?

[Comment 3 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2013-04-30 13:44:50 UTC]

OK, then worked around for the moment:

+  30 Apr 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <[e-mail]> use.stable.mask:
+  Temporarily stable.mask PYTHON_TARGETS=python3_3 and
+  PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET=python3_3 for convenience of python:3.3 testers since
+  python:3.3 is masked and certainly not stable (bug #467894).

(In reply to comment #2)

I hope that we will be able to stabilize pygobject-3.4 before then (it would require stabilizing glib-2.34, which would require patching a few things). And if not, when python-3.3 is stabilized, we can add an unstable revision of dbus-python and remove 3.3 support from the stable dbus-python revision.

[Comment 4 Mike Gilbert 2013-05-21 22:56:35 UTC]

We needed to stable-mask this anyway, so thanks for taking care of it. :)
