why do we know that it is python-3.6 compatible? The installed package is just a list of data files in .mpi format, plus a udev hwdb and a file of udev rules. There are three small python 3 scripts in the tools folder. As far as I can tell the python 3 dependency is limited to the build process. And the package builds with python 3.6 just fine, without any apparent problems. I looked at the scripts and can't see anything that python 3.6 would break, but I'm not an expert, so it is definitely necessary for someone else to give a look. |
Created attachment 477826 [details] added python 3.6 compatibility media-player-info-22.ebuild causes the whole system to be dependent on python 3.5 or 3.4 even if python 3.6 is available. Attached ebuild solves this.
