- 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 294047 [details, diff] ebuild patch I can't see that it has runtime deps on python other than thru linked libs. No .py files in the qlist a side issue to this. >>> * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile >>> * fine but exhibit random runtime failures. >>> * rlm_ldap.c:2394:2: warning: implicit declaration of function "ldap_int_tls_config' >>> * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile >>> * fine but exhibit random runtime failures. >>> * /usr/include/bits/stdio2.h:65:3: warning: call to __builtin___snprintf_chk will always overflow destination buffer Only 3 changes made.
Should be okay in 2.2.0.
Files in src/modules/rlm_python directory are incompatible with Python 3.
Re-opening per Arfrever's request.
Something similar was done for 2.2.0.
