Description Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-17 17:23:52 UTC
This package specifies dependency on dev-python/pyxml.

Please test this package with dev-lang/python-2.7.1-r2:2.7 or >=dev-lang/python-2.7.2_pre20110515:2.7, which require explicit calling of xml.use_pyxml() before using PyXML.

If this package actually needs PyXML, then modify all modules/scripts of this package, which import xml module. The following code should be added before first import of anything from xml module:

import xml
if hasattr(xml, "use_pyxml"):
    xml.use_pyxml()

This code works with previous versions of Python, so no changes in dependencies are needed.

if I don't misremember, this path to go was finally aborted some years ago
