dev-python/scrapy-1.4.0 request dev-python/pypydispatcher for pypy support Reproducible: Always
Could you elaborate on this fork? Is it a complete replacement for pydispatcher? Is it actively maintained? Can it be installed simultaneously? Is pydispatcher dead upstream? AFAICS dev-python/pydispatcher is only needed for dev-python/stormpath. It might be a better idea to replace it completely, if it's dead upstream.
The package pypydispatcher is maintained from scrapy project, just like w3lib, cssselect, parsel und etc. This package is needed by scrapy to support pypy for scrapy-1.4.0. Based on https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyDispatcher last released of pydispatcher package was 2015-01-15, which is quite some time ago... If this is a dead upstream, I don't know. Concerning the question if dev-python/stormpath could work with pypydispatcher, the answer is yes (I tested it with a local ebuild)
Last upstream bzr commit is 2015-01-15 [1]. So I guess replacing it with pypydispatcher completely is a viable option. [1]:https://code.launchpad.net/pydispatcher
I'm going to take this for python@ as pydispatcher maint.
