Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-04-18 02:25:36 UTC
- 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.

Comment 1 David Abbott (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-01 02:05:16 UTC
Not updated since 2004, will not work on Python 3.
Comment 2 Michael Palimaka (kensington) gentoo-dev 2012-07-12 15:36:09 UTC
This package bundles dev-python/pexpect and can be replaced with ssh-copy-id from openssh.

If there are no objections, I will lastrite it shortly.
Comment 3 Michael Palimaka (kensington) gentoo-dev 2012-08-16 15:15:47 UTC
Removed from the tree.
