Bug 640022 (gnome2-python-removal) – [TRACKER] Remove dead gnome-python-common packages

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Pacho Ramos 2017-12-06 14:10:23 UTC]

Reading bug 628938 I took another look to all reverse deps and it seems there are still a lot of work to do for some of the splitted packages (like libgnome-python), but, for others, it should be easy.

Anyway, I think we could have this tracker to refer to when asking maintainers of reverse deps to drop the support for this dead bindings. That should help us to clean the tree progressively from the usage of the bindings.

Created attachment 514490 [details]
terminator-0.98-r1.ebuild

terminator-0.98 is a very stable version which I already use for years because of an issue in 0.97. I suggest to keep this 0.98-r1 ebuild in the tree which basically is the same as 0.98 with the gnome part removed so it won't block the removal of old gnome-python packages anymore.

The following packages are now without (or masked for last-rites) revdeps:

dev-python/gconf-python
dev-python/gnome-python-base
dev-python/pygtksourceview (mask <app-text/cherrytree-0.99 at the same time)
