I have done some work this evening to integrate the latest versions of |
2 |
dev-lang/python from Arfrever's Progress overlay into gentoo-x86. |
3 |
|
4 |
He has done a nice job rebasing the patchsets and updating the ebuilds. |
5 |
|
6 |
I took this opportunity to simplify the ebuilds a bit. Primarily this |
7 |
meant stripping out the logic for pre-release snapshots. If anyone |
8 |
really thinks we should keep this, please speak up. |
9 |
|
10 |
Python-2.7.3 is already in the tree, but Arfrever indicates it has a |
11 |
regression for C++ applications that link python. We should probably do |
12 |
a revbump for that. |
13 |
|
14 |
If we can get some people testing these that would be great. I would |
15 |
like to add them to the tree sometime in the next week. |

You may find the ebuilds here: |

|
20 |
https://bitbucket.org/floppym/python-testing/src/default/dev-lang/python |
21 |
|
22 |
Or you can clone the overlay for easy installation: |
23 |
|
24 |
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/floppym/python-testing |
25 |
|
26 |
The patchsets should be on the gentoo mirrors by the time you read this. |

If not, you may find them here: |
