- If this package can be used as a library and installs Python modules (*.so or *.py) into site-packages directories, then consider supporting installation for multiple Python versions. Please read section "Types of packages" in documentation [1] to decide if this package can support installation for multiple Python versions. - 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. Please read section "Specification of dependency on Python" in documentation [1]. - 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.) Please read section "Shebangs in installed scripts" in documentation [1]. - 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. [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/Python/developersguide.xml
Created attachment 294029 [details, diff] ebuild patch
(In reply to comment #1) Delete dev-lang/python from RDEPEND. src_install() { ... python_convert_shebangs -r 2 "${ED}" } pkg_postinst() { python_mod_optimize /usr/$(get_libdir)/ask } pkg_postrm() { python_mod_cleanup /usr/$(get_libdir)/ask }
I don't know what's going on here. Your recommended line draws * ERROR: mail-filter/ask-2.5.3 failed (install phase): * python_convert_shebangs(): '' does not exist python_convert_shebangs 2 "${ED}"/usr/bin/asksetup draws; * Converting shebang in '/usr/bin/askfilter' ACCESS DENIED rename: /usr/bin/sedR8Hih9 python_convert_shebangs -r 2 . works (draws); * Converting shebang in 'askfilter' * Converting shebang in 'asksetup' * Converting shebang in 'utils/asksenders' * Converting shebang in 'askversion.py' * Converting shebang in 'test.py' Must be to do with where the location dir is at at that point. as much As I can do for now.
(In reply to comment #3) ${ED} is available in src_install() in EAPI >=3. In earlier EAPIs, ${D} should be used.
Created attachment 294397 [details, diff] revised ebuild patch Arfrever, you were right ofcourse. Found that confusion came from an accidental EAP="4" from the last session. Little wonder!
(In reply to comment #5) PYTHON_DEPEND, not IPYTHON_DEPEND.
This approach was changed by the -r1 python eclasses
