Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2024-04-13 08:34:34 UTC
This package does not support Python 3.12.  Please test it with Python 3.12 as a matter of urgency as the default will change in early June, as per message on gentoo-dev: https://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org/msg99104.html.  Please check the information provided in the tracker.  Ask in #gentoo-python on IRC if need any help.

dev-python/unittest-or-fail is missing as a BDEPEND for tests. Locally I had tests passing, despite the github bug linked?

I don't think it is missing. 'distutils_enable_tests unittest' will add it.

The bug is for a debug build (USE=debug) of Python (i.e. with assertions). The interesting question is if Python 3.11 with assertions fails or if it's new with 3.12. Given what greenlet does, I wouldn't want to handwave it away.

Besides, greenlet is a mess code-wise and we ought to really remove it.

    dev-python/greenlet: enable py3.12
    
    Done with regret. It still fails tests with python[debug] but upstream
    seem content enough and folks are shipping wheels with Python 3.12 + greenlet,
    so it can't be *that* bad, I guess.
    
    People really need to stop using this though.
