Great Python rebuild

Since it hit testing repo I have problems with a few python dependent applications.

Exaile wont start

exaile
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/exaile/exaile.py", line 52, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/lib/exaile/exaile.py", line 47, in main
    from xl import main
  File "/usr/lib/exaile/xl/main.py", line 458
    """%__version__
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

And hotot (twitter client app) is whining about distutils so I guess that setuptools 0.6c11-2 needs rebuilding also.

Everything else seems to be working fine.

Re: Great Python rebuild

It looks like both of those had packages update in testing today.
setuptools
exaile
If you don't have those your mirror might have caught them being updated, otherwise probably should be reported as bugs

seems that you don't have community-testing enabled

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: Great Python rebuild

Heh, so many updates today I've missed it completely, my bad.

Ok, I don't have community-testing enabled so scratch that one out for exaile. On the other hand hotot requires python-keybinder so I'll investigate further.

/edit: Wonder beat me to it AGAIN !!!

Re: Great Python rebuild

Ok, I've got it finally, sort of Now python is python 3.1.2 and python2 is python 2.7, before python was 2.6 and that messed up all python dependant software that we are now trying to build for ourselves. I've noticed in PKGBUILDS for many rebuilded packages in testing that hacks are needed to point to python2 instead of python.

Now I only have to figure out how to do that for python-keybinder for example...

This is going to be a bumpy ride Nevertheless all rebuilded packages that are in repo's works just fine (great work dev's and tu's), AUR PKGBUILDS however need to be adjusted.

Re: Great Python rebuild

I tried to make a patch for wicd, I would be pleased if someone can tell me it doesn't go wrong (see in the bug report).

Re: Great Python rebuild

As wonder has stated repeatedly, the bug tracker is the correct place to report issues related to this. I'll close this thread so that nobody else gets the bright idea of saying "App X is broken too!". Submit a bug, please.
