Description

Not claiming it doesn't work anyways, but the references upstream merge request says it's going to be in glib-2.79 (which will be glib-2.80 once out of alpha/beta), but you are requesting for 2.78.x and in 2.78.3 it still imports distutils.version What would need testing is the running of gdbus-codegen, which might testing with a package that BDEPENDs on it, not glib package tests themselves, though gdbus-codegen ebuild does claim:
einfo "Skipping tests. This package is tested by dev-libs/glib"
einfo "when merged with FEATURES=test"
but I'm not sure how true that is.
Anyhow, the upstream merge request improving things for 3.12, but not being included in our versions yet, makes me weary of just adding the COMPAT without more research. Feel free to ehlp with said research.
Interesting. I have successfully merged =dev-libs/glib-2.78.3 with python3_12 in PYTHON_COMPAT and FEATURE=test. If it needs further testing, I have definitely not tried that. But sure, if upstream says it does not yet work with python3.12, I can not really argue with that. I did not look through the upstream issue tracker when raising this bug. Update: I have tried emerging, with FEATURE=test, dev-libs/glib, dev-util/gdbus-codegen and x11-libs/gtk+ glib ebuild was changed to allow python3.12. gtk+ was chosen because it has gdbus-codegen in BDEPEND. All of that passed all tests and installed fine. Looking at the glib pull request, the only python file that was importing distutils does not actually get installed, at least on my system. All that said, I can always maintain my own ebuild for a while longer, until the new version of glib, with the switch to python-packaging, arrives in gentoo. So feel free to close this bug report if you want. (In reply to Boris Staletic from comment #4) > Update: > I have tried emerging, with FEATURE=test, dev-libs/glib, > dev-util/gdbus-codegen and x11-libs/gtk+ > > glib ebuild was changed to allow python3.12. The questionable part is dev-util/gdbus-codegen and its PYTHON_COMPAT. But that apparently already has python3.12 in PYTHON_COMPAT. CCing who added it for clarification (I'm not saying it's wrong, just maybe they know all the background already without us having to re-research it) Going to add the PYTHON_COMPAT to a bump and following up checking into the other split packages (that seem to have upstream fixes for 3.12 support, yet have PYTHON_COMPAT already) into a local TODO, as there seems to be no real issues reported from that so far The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=25f7c9419f551769ded272280e99f1b2b2fa8620 commit 25f7c9419f551769ded272280e99f1b2b2fa8620 Author: Mart Raudsepp <leio@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2024-01-21 21:18:10 +0000 Commit: Mart Raudsepp <leio@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2024-01-21 21:23:33 +0000 dev-libs/glib: add 2.78.4 Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/919904 Signed-off-by: Mart Raudsepp <leio@gentoo.org> dev-libs/glib/Manifest | 1 + dev-libs/glib/glib-2.78.4.ebuild | 312 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 313 insertions(+) The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=d2a3cfe3b625829a894f700da57795327a9cbe92 commit d2a3cfe3b625829a894f700da57795327a9cbe92 Author: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2024-01-22 11:25:05 +0000 Commit: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2024-01-22 11:26:10 +0000 dev-util/gdbus-codegen: patch out distutils use Just like the fix from bug #922654, but utils.py gets installed, so we need to make sure we both patch it here too & add dev-python/packaging to RDEPEND.
