Subject: [gentoo-python] Masking dev-python/python-exec (the compat) for removal
Date: Sun, 02 Mar 2014 08:45:05

1 Hello, team.

3 A quick question: do you think it'd be ok to mask
4 dev-python/python-exec for removal? That's the compat package that
5 pulls in both versions of dev-lang/python-exec.

7 As far as I can see:
8
9 1. people that have updated all Python packages no longer have it
10 on their systems,
11
12 2. people that have not updated all Python packages yet will have it
13 kept installed by portage until they do so,
14
15 3. people with systems from dark ages (when python-exec was unslotted)
16 may have problems moving through the blockers but I don't think waiting
17 any longer would really help them.
