#34642 closed defect (fixed)

py-scientific: removal of python24 version broke py24-ipython

Reported by: jmroot (Joshua Root) Owned by: adfernandes (Andrew Fernandes)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.1
Keywords: Cc: akitada@…
Port: py-scientific py-ipython

Description

Prior to r87833, py-scientific was available for python24. Currently, py24-ipython depends on py-scientific, but py-scientific is now just a stub that depends on py27-scientific.

Either py24-scientific needs to be added, or py24-ipython needs to be deleted.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

I've re-added python 2.4 support in r93700, but no guarantees that it works. Python 2.4 is pretty old... but then again, so is Scientific Python... :-)

We are supposed to be on a quest to remove all of python 2.4 from MacPorts, not re-add it where it's already been removed.

Didn't know that.

I'm happy to remove the 2.4 support... but py24-ipython isn't mine to fiddle with. If whoever wants to remove py24-ipython they should feel free to back out r93700 also.

I'm not sure why there needs to be a "quest". If the relevant maintainers decide that a python24 version is no longer necessary or no longer feasible, they can remove it. They just need to coordinate with the maintainers of dependents when doing so.

Fixed py24-ipython deps in r93706.
