Bug 471532 – media-gfx/mcomix-1.00: Deprecated imports of PIL modules

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mike Gilbert 2013-05-28 04:16:33 UTC]

See tracker bug 471488 for details.

/usr/bin/comicthumb:    import Image

[Comment 1 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2013-06-01 05:15:01 UTC]

That tracker is short on details.  What's being deprecated?  What versions?

[Comment 2 Mike Gilbert 2013-06-01 18:17:02 UTC]

dev-python/imaging has been forked into dev-python/pillow with a new maintainer.

dev-python/pillow no longer supports importing modules from the top-level namespace. So instead of this:

import Image

You need to do this:

from PIL import Image

[Comment 3 Mike Gilbert 2013-06-01 18:19:10 UTC]

The intent is to eventually create a virtual for dev-python/imaging and dev-python/pillow and update deps.

[Comment 4 Dominique Michel 2013-07-03 23:42:58 UTC]

For now, the imaging depend block portage:

  (dev-python/pillow-2.0.0-r1::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
    dev-python/pillow[tk?,python_targets_python2_7(-)] (dev-python/pillow[python_targets_python2_7(-)]) required by (virtual/python-imaging-1::gentoo, installed)
    dev-python/pillow[tk?,python_targets_python3_2(-)] (dev-python/pillow[python_targets_python3_2(-)]) required by (virtual/python-imaging-1::gentoo, installed)

  (dev-python/imaging-1.1.7-r4::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    >=dev-python/imaging-1.1.5[python_targets_python2_6(-)?,python_targets_python2_7(-)?,-python_single_target_python2_6(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-)] (>=dev-python/imaging-1.1.5[python_targets_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python2_6(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-)]) required by (media-gfx/mcomix-1.00::gentoo, installed)

Fixed.
