Bug 585794 – app-misc/gcalcli should depend on <=dev-python/oauth2client-1.4.12

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Aurélien Francillon 2016-06-13 09:46:26 UTC]

Hi,

gcalcli does not work with later versions of oauthclient:
https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli/issues/204

this was fixed by upstream install script:
https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli/commit/f451bfe752aca705e5b306ceb54d27fc80332b30

But needs to be reflected in gentoo ebuild (until a long term solution is found).

Ebuild patch attached.


Best regards, 
Aurélien

Gentoo ebuild doesn't currently depend on oauthclient, but perhaps this could be facilitated with an appropriate USE flag.

No patch currently attached, but passing to Rob anyway.

gcalcli-3.3.2.ebuild.patch

Sorry here is the patch.

In addition to this, it seem that dev-python/google-api-python-client-1.3.1 is needed, instead of the stable 1.5.0. With the stable version the following error occurs (non fatal): 

# gcalcli agenda                                                                                                                        WARNING:root:No module named contrib.locked_file

    from oauth2client.contrib.locked_file import LockedFile
ImportError: No module named contrib.locked_file

These seem to be related problems.

The patch.

There's a workaround to fix that and doesn't need an specific version of oauth2client.

There goes the patch. Tested here with oauth2client-2.2.0 and working.

Thanks for the patch, this worked well for me. 

However this does not seem to be a perfect solution (problems with newer auths):
https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli/pull/211

This has been solved in the tree... not sure which release includes this patch however.

Looks like version 3.4.0 was released. Maybe adding ebuild for 3.4.0 solves this without forcing an old version of the library?

[Comment 7 Ferenc Erki 2017-03-25 21:37:50 UTC]

I've opened bug 613850 for a version bump to 3.4.0, including a fix for this too.
