Bug 678108 – dev-vcs/git-remote-hg-1.0.0 version bump and HOMEPAGE/SRC_URI change

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Nikos Chantziaras 2019-02-15 23:21:08 UTC]

(Bug for GitHub PR.)

The current git-remote-hg in portage uses a fork that is not maintained anymore and doesn't work with recent Git and Mercurial versions. The original upstream the fork was based on is active again and has pushed out working versions, with 1.0.0 being the current release.

No ebuild changes other than HOMEPAGE and SRC_URI, updated copyright header and a minor indentation fix.

Deleted 0.2 and 0.3 ebuilds, as those versions don't work anymore.

I added myself as proxied maintainer for the package in the PR.

Oh crap... I should really look into bugzilla before I touch maintainer-needed packages.
Would you mind changing you PR so it only changes the metadata.xml file? Once you've done that I gonna merge your PR...
Sorry for ignoring your PR. I simply forgot to check if someone else already did some work on this package...

[Comment 3 Nikos Chantziaras 2019-04-22 20:25:21 UTC]

With the way this ebuild works now, I wouldn't know how to maintain it due to the setup.py patch.

[Comment 4 Nikos Chantziaras 2019-04-22 21:24:12 UTC]

OK, I updated the PR to remove the patch and switch to python-single-r1. I filed a bug upstream about setup.py. If they're actually interested in supporting non-Git installations though Python, I'll switch it back in the next upstream release.

As long as the patch applies, you're safe :)

But honestly, all my patch does is to remove the whole version detection by git and replace it with fetching the version from ${PV} env variable. That's no rocket science. If you feel not good with this, just ask me for a new patch if the old one no longer applies.

[Comment 6 Nikos Chantziaras 2019-04-23 21:08:21 UTC]

Alright. I updated the PR. I simplified the deps and removed src_test() since it seems redundant.
