Description Sam James archtester

This package does not support Python 3.10. Please test it with Python 3.10 as a matter of urgency as the default will change in early June, as per message on gentoo-dev: https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/13aa993921f19b6b095297721ffb0d0b. Ask in #gentoo-python on IRC if need any help.

The major Python part of the package is the pump server and it's definitely broken on py3.10.  There's no fix upstream, the package is absolutely awful and dead, and even if you disable pump support the test suite tries to test it and fails.

    sys-devel/distcc: update EAPI 7 -> 8, Python 3.10
    
    Seems to mostly work with Python 3.10, although I get a test failure,
    it's better than it was pre-patch.
