Fair enough - so the issue is really with dev-python/oauth2client which |
| 40 |
does look abandoned. That's the package you really need to keep a local |
| 41 |
copy of but that really looks like it could break at any time. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
However the README from that package states:- |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
"Note: oauth2client is now deprecated. No more features will be added to |
| 46 |
the libraries and the core team is turning down support. We recommend |
| 47 |
you use google-auth and oauthlib. For more details on the deprecation, |
| 48 |
see oauth2client deprecation." |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Portage has google-auth and friends. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Note that gsutil itself is still being maintained (at |
| 53 |
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gsutil) and as it's the |
| 54 |
"official" Google package then is already likely to work with the latest |
| 55 |
access methods. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Worst case uninstall the portage gsutil and look into installing gsutil |
| 58 |
into /usr/local from the official GoogleCloud site above. I'd expect |
| 59 |
Portage's gsutil to catch up at some point. |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
IMO installing local copies of gsutil with broken dependency packages |
| 62 |
and then maintaining them looks like a potential world of pain ! |
