Depending on the nature of the fix: Would a news item be needed? From what I heard, most of people get this working through a plain: emerge -Du @world If someone is really reluctant to world updates, it is enough to upgrade dev-python/python-exec to 10000.*: emerge -1v dev-python/python-exec I was considering writing a news item for it but we discussed it on IRC and decided that users are really expected to be able to handle themselves, especially wrt to: 1. using 'emerge -Du @world' to upgrade their systems, 2. reading the blocker output to see that it states '<dev-python/python-exec-10000' -> which suggests: what if I upgrade to 10000? If you believe that a news item would be helpful, I'm happy to write it. Just please make sure that we're all in agreement over the method of handling the issue. Additionally, the news item would state how to get rid of the old deps. This will presumably involve something like: emerge -1v $( qdepends -NCQ dev-python/python-exec ) Please note that 'equery d' from gentoolkit is currently broken due to some random magic inside portage and doesn't list all the packages correctly. However, for the latter it would be probably preferred to wait with it till python-exec:2 is stable on all arches to avoid rebuilding packages twice in a short time. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
