Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-01-27 18:55:23 UTC
Our automated repository checks [1] have detected that the 'gnome'
repository contains ebuilds that trigger fatal errors during the cache
regeneration. This usually means that the ebuilds call 'die' in global
scope indicating serious issues or have other serious QA violations.

Global-scope failures prevent the ebuild not only from being installed
but also from being properly processed by the Package Manager. Since
metadata can not be obtained for those ebuilds, no cache entries are
created for them and the Package Manager needs to retry running them
every time it stumbles upon them. This involves both a serious slowdown
and repeating error output while performing dependency resolution.

The most common cause of global-scope failures is use of removed or
banned APIs in old ebuilds. In particular, this includes eclasses being
removed or removing support for old EAPIs. Nonetheless there are also
other issues such as performing illegal operations in global scope
(external program calls), malformed bash in ebuilds or malformed
metadata.xml.

The error log for the repository can be found at:

  https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/repos/gnome.html

In particular, please look for highlighted error messages.

Please fix the issue ASAP, possibly via removing unmaintained, old
ebuilds. We reserve the right to remove the repository from our list if
we do not receive any reply within 4 weeks.

    app-editors/gedit: Drop outdated and live ebuild
    
    3.30.2 or newer has been in main tree for a long time, and the live
    ebuild is very outdated here on top of autotools. Just drop it as
    it doesn't have any valid python targets anymore.
