Description Alexander Zubkov 2012-05-23 08:11:31 UTC
I'm receiving such error when calling "glsa-check --dump affected" and having python-3* selected:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/glsa-check", line 268, in <module>
    myglsa.dump()
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/gentoolkit/glsa/__init__.py", line 628, in dump
    outstream.write(center("GLSA %s: \n%s" % (self.nr, self.title), width)+"\n")
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/gentoolkit/glsa/__init__.py", line 64, in center
    rValue = " "*margin
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

Looks like this line (64) in /usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/gentoolkit/glsa/__init__.py:
        margin = (width-len(text))/2
        rValue = " "*margin
Should be changed to something like (not sure in Python syntax):
        margin = int((width-len(text))/2)
Comment 1 Paul Varner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-05-24 05:47:04 UTC
The fix is to change the line:
margin = (width-len(text))/2
to:
margin = (width-len(text))//2

Python2 did integer floor division by default and Python3 does not.  I'll fix the code and it will be in the next release.

Hi. When the next release will be available?
Comment 3 Marc Schiffbauer gentoo-dev 2012-11-04 23:06:26 UTC
I would consider this a much higher importance because currently glsa-check is broken for all systems that use python3

Or in other words: Gentoo's tool for doing security updates is broken in its current stable version when using a "default" python setup.
Comment 4 Paul Varner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-06 17:27:42 UTC
Released in gentoolkit-0.3.0.7
