Build output

Summary says it all, fails to build with python3, not with python2.

I unmasked app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 and build went fine.
The ebuild should force python2 or app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 should be marked as stable.

patch to force python2 in 4.1.1-r6
Comment 3 razamatan 2012-07-18 03:10:13 UTC 
i went ahead and made a patch to unblock myself.  please apply, great xen maintainer...
Comment 4 razamatan 2012-07-18 04:01:11 UTC 
xen (4.1.1-r2, 4.1.2) itself needs some work to force python2 in systems that have both.  i can cut another bug, or should we rework this bug to focus on the forced python2 aspect needed along the xen stack.
Comment 5 Andreis Vinogradovs ( slepnoga ) 2012-08-09 08:02:08 UTC 
confirm this bug.
i have installed xen enabled systems from stage3 in amd64 ( clean install), result - fail. Xen-tools NOT build with python3.
Please add call python_set_active_version 2 in pkg_setup()
Comment 6 Herbert 2012-11-18 15:33:50 UTC 
confirm this bug.
i have installed xen enabled systems from hardened-stage3 in amd64 ( clean install), result - fail. Xen-tools NOT build with python3.
Comment 7 Jeremy Banks 2012-11-27 20:53:56 UTC 
I get the same error attached in the initial description.

If Python 3 is the active version, xen-tools-4.1.1-r6 will not install. If Python 2 is set as the active version, or razamatan's patch is used, xen-tools-4.1.1-r6 installs with no trouble.

Can razamatan's patch be merged, please?

app-emulation/xen-tools-4.1.2-r2 should be marked as stable.

406567 was a miserable failure
