1 Hey!
2
3 since some time, libffi is removed from python. either of one things
4 would have been cool:
5
6 a) inserting the rm -fr _after_ patching, so that patches don't break.
7 i don't even ask you to check whether patches still apply ...
8 b) revbumping, so that i at least see the problem immediately, not
9 at the _next_ revbump, which is prolly unrelated.
10
11 at first i was really puzzeled as to why my older prefixes all break on
12 python updates (as opposed to more current ones, which have the python
13 from before the rm -fr was inserted).
14
15 Cheers, Markus
