Description Jesse Adelman 2015-07-28 21:46:10 UTC
Howdy. Running into some problems with Python dependencies and package naming. Apparently, this is not in Portage:

http://pythonhosted.org/python-gnupg/

However, things seem unwell in Python-land regarding this name. :( Apparently, 'pip' installs this one when asked to install "pygpg", while Gentoo uses a different module.

Apologies if I've got PEBKAC. My basic question is how to install the library linked to above with Portage?

Cheers!

dev-python/pyGPG = https://github.com/dol-sen/pyGPG
dev-python/python-gnupg = http://pythonhosted.org/python-gnupg/

We try to keep package names more-or-less consistent with what upstream developers use.

"emerge python-gnupg" :)
