python-musicbrainz2: Remove obsolete port

Reported by: mf2k (Frank Schima) Owned by: petrrr
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: elelay (Eric Le Lay), petrrr
Port: python-musicbrainz2

Description

The port python-musicbrainz2 should be changed to use the python 1.0 portgroup with subports for specific python versions and renamed to py-musicbrainz2 to match all other python modules in Macports. This allows for different python versions and is then clear about which python the port actually uses.

Summary: python-musicbrainz2: Rename and use python 1.0 portgrouppython-musicbrainz2: Remove obsolete port

According to the home page:

Status: Deprecated as of May 2011. This library is not compatible with the current MusicBrainz schema, but will still work with older versions and with the ws/1 legacy web service.

So this port should probably be removed.

The commit above, r141434 contains unintended additional changes. I reverted these in r141438 and recommitted in r141439. Sorry!

Quodlibet depends on python-musicbrainz2 for its musicbrainz plugin and is, therefore, broken by this removal. Copying maintainer of quodlibet for his info. Please check for possible dependents before removing ports. Thanks.

Thanks for the cc, quodlibet is not installable anymore now, isn't it?

Alternatives:

  • remove dependency in QL port, breaking musicbrainz integration for those using it.
  • upstream re-implements the plugin using http://python-musicbrainzngs.readthedocs.org + new port in macports for it. Unfortunately python-musicbrainzngs doesn't cover 100% of the old python-musicbrainz2.
  • resurrect then python-musicbrainz2 port (with subports).

I don't have time now to check if other ports depend on python-musicbrainz2.

Not sure I completely understand the problem. Before removing the port, I checked for dependents and have not found any.

Even now when looking through the dependencies of port quodlibet @3.4.1_2, I do not find it the dependency. So is this a unspecified dependency or are you refereeing to a different port?

Okay, I see the dependency was removed in r141581, not sure why I have not detected it.
