Bug 311207 – app-emulation/xen-tools: Verify and potentially improve Python-related code

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) 2010-03-24 19:40:26 UTC]

- If this package can be used as a library and installs Python modules
  (*.so or *.py) into directories specific to given versions of Python,
  then consider supporting installation for multiple Python versions.
  Please read section "Types of packages" in documentation [1].

- Ensure that the ebuilds do not use deprecated functions or variables.

- Please check if Python 3 is supported by this package. You can temporarily
  set Python 3 as main active version of Python to properly test if this
  package supports Python 3.

- If this package does not support Python 3:
  - Specify dependency on Python 2.
    You can use PYTHON_DEPEND helper variable, which should be set before
    inheriting of python eclass.

  - If this package cannot support installation for multiple versions of
    Python, then set active version of Python using
    python_set_active_version().

  - Ensure that shebangs in installed scripts specify correct version of
    Python. If shebangs are too generic (e.g. '#!/usr/bin/python'), then you
    can use python_convert_shebangs() to convert shebangs.
    (Wrapper scripts generated by python_generate_wrapper_scripts() do not
    require any changes.)

  - To ensure that changes applied to the ebuilds are sufficient, please
    temporarily set Python 3 as main active version of Python and test if
    this package can be properly installed and if it works at run time.

Please see documentation [1] for more details.

Xen 4.1 in tree. Please test with it and reopen if it doesnt work

[Comment 2 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) 2011-03-26 15:46:11 UTC]

You haven't fixed anything related to Python in app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.0.

[Comment 3 Ian Delaney (RETIRED) 2011-10-14 19:37:34 UTC]

xen-tools-4.1.0 is dropped now in the tree

[Comment 4 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis 2011-10-16 09:53:04 UTC]

app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.1-r5 does not support Python 3.
app-emulation/xen-tools ebuilds still need to be fixed.

Reopening since the package is not fixed yet
