Description Yaroslav Isakov 2016-12-17 16:34:13 UTC

OVS 2.6.0 cannot be build if system python is of version 3. It looks like ovsdb/ovsdb-idlc.in is not python3-ready, because it's using print statements instead of e.g. six.print_:
PYTHONPATH=./python":"$PYTHONPATH PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=yes /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/openvswitch-2.6.0/work/openvswitch-2.6.0/build-aux/missing python ./ovsdb/ovsdb-idlc.in annotate ./ovn/ovn-nb.ovsschema ./ovn/lib/ovn-nb-idl.ann > ovn/lib/ovn-nb-idl.ovsidl.tmp && \
mv ovn/lib/ovn-nb-idl.ovsidl.tmp ovn/lib/ovn-nb-idl.ovsidl
  File "./ovsdb/ovsdb-idlc.in", line 135
    #include "uuid.h"''' % {'prefix': prefix.upper()}
                       ^

I assume this fails in 2.6.0-r2 as well?

Comment 2 Yaroslav Isakov 2016-12-31 03:59:59 UTC

Sorry, I cannot install 2.6.0-r2 because of new dependencies (I do not want to build whole Qt4), but I've checked the differences between two ebuilds and found bug #596206, which is pretty the same as mine. So, closing this one as a duplicate. Shame that I tried to find similar bugs before but failed...
