The Python team will no longer maintain the following packages. They |
| 2 |
all need porting to Python 3.7 and newer, and have some obstacle |
| 3 |
in doing so. They have only few revdeps which we do not maintain. |

dev-python/pythondialog |

dev-python/sphinxcontrib-issuetracker |

dev-python/toro |

|
| 18 |
pythondialog is used by net-analyzer/gvm-tools (jonas.licht@) |
| 19 |
and net-vpn/protonvpn-cli (ilmostro7@). It is missing tests. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
ramlfications are used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@ indicate he'll |
| 22 |
revive it). The tests fail already and it's on 2016 snapshot. |
| 23 |
It seems pretty much dead. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
repoze-sphinx-autointerface is used by dev-python/txtorcon (just taken |
| 26 |
by dolsen@). It is missing tests. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
robotframework is needed only for dev-python/robotbackgroundlogger |
| 29 |
(zmedico@). It is missing tests. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
sleekxmpp is used by net-im/err (pinkbyte@) and net-im/spectrum2 |
| 32 |
(conikost@, andrey_utkin@). It is broken with py3.7 and upstream |
| 33 |
has archived the repository. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
sphinxcontrib-issuetracker is used only by dev-python/pydocstyle |
| 36 |
(python@, monsieurp@, andrewammerlaan@). Either the tests or the whole |
| 37 |
package is broken with Sphinx 3 (and possibly older). |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
toro is needed only by dev-python/thriftpy (sci@). Some of the tests |
| 40 |
are failing (already) and no upstream activity since 2016. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
txaio is only used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@) and sci-libs/vtk |
| 43 |
(sci@). All tests fail with a test suite error. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
txAMQP by dev-python/carbon (patrick@, grobian@). Tests require |
| 46 |
a system instance of rabbitmq server. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
txgithub is the only package that I managed to test up to Python 3.8 |
| 49 |
(though either test coverage or API coverage is near zero). It is used |
| 50 |
by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@). |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
txrequests is used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@). It is missing tests. |
