Looks like you are correct, but note that we currently have 3.10 as |
| 15 |
stable version, so electrum-ltc should be at least that version. |

If any user manages to fix the issues mentioned in last rite message |
| 23 |
(mainly bump to at least 3.10 python target), I would gladly cancel the |
| 24 |
last-rite and mask. |
| 25 |
If you do it, please ping me in the PR, and I would gladly review it. |

Those last-rites I did today are mainly for those packages that were |
| 28 |
stuck in only 3.8, had a bug open for 7-10 month already. If any |
| 29 |
maintainer can fix those ebuilds, I would happily revert the last-rite. |
