NonsolvableDepsInStable: version 4.0: nonsolvable depset(rdepend) keyword(~amd64) stable profile (default/linux/amd64/17.1) (31 total): solutions: [ =dev-python/importlib_metadata-4*[python_targets_python3_10(-),python_targets_python3_11(-),python_targets_python3_8(-),python_targets_python3_9(-)] ]
Upstream has this in install_requires: 'importlib-metadata~=4.12; python_version < "3.10"' Ah, and I see this in the related commit message: Entry points use the modern `importlib.metadata.entry_points` API. This has only solidified as of Python 3.10 (3.8/3.9 had it but it's not compatible), so we pull in the official backport for those versions. How should I go about this in terms of Gentoo? Drop python 3.8/9 support? Or add the importlib_metadata dependency in a different way?
I'd start by testing against importlib-metadata-5* and seeing if it works. If it does, then upstream dep should be relaxed. Ofc removing old Python version support and therefore riding of the dep is the easy way out.
