Description Michał Górny archtester

Right now 'gpy-upgrade-impl python3_3 python3_4' reports all python.eclass packages since python3.4 is not supported at all in that eclass (and therefore assumed disabled). Therefore, it pretty much starts doing the task of 'gpy-depcands' :).

I wonder what we should do. Possibilities:

1. add an '--r1-only' option to ignore python.eclass packages,

2. unconditionally ignore python.eclass packages :),

3. do not report python.eclass upgrades to unsupported implementations.

Your thoughts?

For now, I've implemented (3). However, I'm still open to comments.

If we are not going to keep maintaining python.eclass, I don't see any real value in checking those packages.
