I recently heard about a very useful interactive Python shell called DreamPie. You can get a copy of the source from http://launchpad.net/dreampie/trunk/1.0/+download/dreampie-1.0.tar.gz The dependencies are dev-python/pygtk, dev-python/pygtksourceview and of course dev-lang/python. I was able to extract the tarball and run it from the "dreampie" executable, but there is also an option to install it using the usual setup.py syntax. Reproducible: Always
I've just pushed an initial attempt into my (ikelos) overlay. Feel free to grab it from there and give it a test. I'm not ready to fully support it, but I'm happy for it to live in my overlay for a while if it helps...
Why's dev-python/pygtk-2.16.0 or dev-python/pygtk-2.16.0-r1 required? I have dev-python/pygtk-2.14.1-r1 right now, and DreamPie worked just fine when I ran it manually.
That was just my initial attempt, and since they didn't document the minimum version required, I used the versions I had installed (and therefore tested against) as the requirements. Were you able to run this using pygtksourceview 2.6.0?
Yes, I have pygtksourceview 2.6.0 installed.
In the tree, thanks (in fact, I've first written an ebuild, and then found this bug)
