The existing (only) ebuild for PyKota is considerably old. There are a lot of improvements in the newer version, and it works with the newer Python versions. The attached ebuild needs a little tweaking due to the requirement to download a package that isn't in portage distfiles. If the package were in portage distfiles the local package wouldn't be necessary. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Need printing solution 2. Have newer Python 3. emerge pykota Actual Results: An ancient pykota is emerged that has problems with newer python. Expected Results: The latest python emerged, and blissful printing is accounted. I'll attach an ebuild that I use.

Created attachment 233667 [details] pykota-1.26.ebuild Sorry, forgot to wrap the html doc building in an "if" block.
Created attachment 233669 [details] pykota svn trunk ebuild Same as above - needed to wrap the html doc building in an "if" block.

Want to mention that I've noticed a problem using pygresql-4.0 with pykota-1.26's printquota.cgi. I don't know if it's an issue between postgresql-8.2.x and pygresql or pykota and pygresql. Downgrading to pygresql-3.8.1 seems to solve the issue.

Bumped from last in-tree version (a lot of python stuff has gone down the drain in the meantime...)
