Description Patrick Ensign 2009-08-06 02:24:12 UTC
Deluge was already installed.  After an update, it would no longer launch.  Attempting to emerge it again produced a compilation failure.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sync and then emerge --uDN world
2. emerge deluge
Actual Results:  
compilation failure, output attached

Expected Results:  
successful install


no-multilib system ...

compile failure output
Comment 2 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-08-06 07:05:05 UTC
It looks to me like you are missing a module from dev-python/setuptools, even though it is listed as a dependency of deluge. Have you upgraded python recently? Maybe you need to run python-updater to rebuild your python modules. 
Comment 3 Patrick Ensign 2009-08-06 16:59:16 UTC
Python was part of the update.  Curiously, the emerge messages after everything was finished said nothing about it (no mention of dev-lang/python at all)...  I would have expected it to display that message about needing to run python-updater if an upgrade had been performed.  When I run "python-updater -v", it hangs there for a few seconds and returns to the command line, producing no output whatsoever.  Shouldn't it produce something?  "emerge -av1 python-updater" makes no difference.  I may have ran python-updater AFTER --depclean uninstalled the previous version though, I don't remember.

The only mention of the word "python" after that update was completed is as follows:

>>> Messages generated by process 3020 on 2009-08-04 10:14:57 PDT for package dev-python/pygtk-2.14.1:

WARN: postrm
Unable to establish /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/pygtk.py symlink
Unable to establish /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/pygtk.pth symlink

...

"emerge -av1 pygtk" completes without any problems, and does not generate the warning it did before.  Those symlinks are still not there though...  Why are there any python2.5 directories at all?  I have 2.6 installed. 

"eselect python list" shows only 2.6 with the asterisk next to it.
eselect-python is version 20090606

huh ... "emerge -av1 setuptools" made a difference.  Deluge is compiling right now as I write this, whereas it would fail immediately before.  python-updater produces no output.  The setuptools install said a bunch of stuff about purging python2.5 files ... but I still see a bunch of stuff in /usr/lib64/python2.5 ...

I don't know what is going on now...
Comment 4 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-08-07 05:59:28 UTC
"python-updater -v" certainly should give some output...

What version of python-updater do you have installed? 
Comment 5 Patrick Ensign 2009-08-07 16:36:54 UTC
I have 0.7 ... emerging again does not make any difference ... I am concerned that I have something borked and the system is gonna give me weird problems down the line.
Comment 6 Jonathan Lovelace 2009-08-07 18:07:14 UTC
On an amd64 box of which I am the current maintainer, I neglected to run python-updater after pythhon 2.6 was installed until emerge --depclean had taken python 2.5 away, and when I did run python-updater it gave the same symptoms: it did and said nothing, even with -v. Reinstalling python 2.5 (--oneshot) fixed it.

Comment 7 Patrick Ensign 2009-08-07 21:39:11 UTC
I was thinking of doing the same thing.  I figure I will reinstall python 2.5, run the updater, and then uninstall 2.5 again...

I know for sure that my machine did not spit out the end of emerge message about needing to run python-updater... Perhaps there is a typo in the ebuild or something?

Comment 9 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-08-10 06:22:38 UTC
Try turning off berkdb flag, and that should allow you to get your python 2.5 back. I think it's a good idea to keep it around for a while longer actually, in case other things have problems with 2.6.
Comment 10 Patrick Ensign 2009-08-11 20:17:46 UTC
I was able to get the old versions installed from tinderbox, then ran python-updater and everything worked just fine.

I would say there is still the issue where the messages that were displayed after the emerge did not say anything about having been updated to a newer python and reminding me to run python-updater...

Can you switch back and forth between python versions? Using python-updater?

How? I don't see this documented in the man page for python-updater... I was holding off on updating python for a while, to let it stabilize a bit more (I'm a bit paranoid about critical system apps like python and portage)...
