pyzord wont run non threaded python install, so the ebuild needs to make sure python is installed with -nothreads Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="nothreads" emerge python 2. start pyzord 3. it fails Actual Results: it runs fine when python is build with USE="gdbm -nothreads" emerge python Expected Results: more testing help needed, i cant be the only one that wants pyzord it works here, just discowered it is threaded, dont realy know if it is unstable, just can say it have not shown any problems in that area here on my dual opterons
Post some errors and emerge --info, please. If it's the case, it needs to be fixed or removed. python w/ USE=nothreads breaks tons of major stuff (see Bug 177866) and is completely unsupported, no ebuild whatsoever should force such thing.
Eh, I read the bug the other way round... local use flags (searching: nothreads) ************************************************************ [- ] nothreads (dev-lang/python): Disable threads (DON'T USE THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING)

As noted in Comment #2, USE=nothreads is completely unsupported, you are on your own with any breakage it causes.
its when threading is disabled that pyzord does not work, hope this is clear
(In reply to comment #6) > its when threading is disabled that pyzord does not work, hope this is clear Yeah, so DO NOT disable it.
why is nothreads unsupported ?
Because it breaks LOTS of things.
