Description Boris Staletic 2017-09-09 19:46:18 UTC

eclean-kernel does not allow PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_5"

Comment 1 calimeroteknik 2017-10-24 11:03:29 UTC

I tried 3.6 as well and it seems to run fine. ("No outdated kernels found.")

Suggesting this:
PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_7,3_4,3_5,3_6} pypy )

Comment 2 Boris Staletic 2017-12-18 11:15:39 UTC

Came here to report the missing python_targets_python3_5 and python_targets_python3_6 flags.

Comment 3 Nikolaj Šujskij 2018-03-09 21:31:48 UTC

`eclean-kernel2` is a rewrite of `eclean-kernel` in C++ (I have no idea why, but still), it's been in ~amd64 for quite a while.  I guess this bug doesn't get much attention (unfortunately) because of that.

Yeah, there's no point in pretending that old eclean-kernel really works. I'm going to remove it soonish in favor of ek2 which -- while unfinished -- is at least free of random crashes and horrible hacks.
