py27-scipy @1.2.3: ImportError: cannot import name _distributor_init

​py27-scipy failed to build on the 10.7 buildbot worker:

Not sure what's special about that worker, other than that I just brought it back online so it's working through a backlog of old builds, but it built successfully on other builders.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that it's using gfortran 10, whereas the previous builds of 1.2.3 on the other workers took place in January and used gfortran 9 except for the build on 10.6 x86_64 last month which used gfortran 8.

I see that compilers.allow_arguments_mismatch yes was added to py3#-scipy (#60520); maybe that's needed for py27-scipy as well.

This was addressed in [184de76712/macports-ports]. However the 10.7 build ​still fails with ImportError: cannot import name _distributor_init.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I would guess because of #60822.

the port ​status page shows indeed still a failure for py27-scipy but the logs are not available anymore, just as they are not here from the link. So I have no idea what went wrong, so if someone wants to try and schedule a rebuild on the 10.7 buildbot feel fre to do so; otherwise I suggest to close this ticket. Python 2.7 has reached EOL a long time ago, and 10.7 is a rather old OS - so at least I will not spend any time on trying to fix this.
