Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-03-24 19:51:54 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.

Comment 1 MATSUU Takuto (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-30 23:40:26 UTC
fixed.
Comment 2 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-06-05 22:53:45 UTC
python_set_active_version() should be called only with USE="python".

Changes introduced in app-i18n/nkf-2.1.0-r1 in pkg_postinst() and pkg_postrm() cause failure during postinstallation/postuninstallation with USE="-python".
Comment 3 MATSUU Takuto (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-06-06 23:31:01 UTC
sorry. Fixed again.
