Description David Walser 2011-05-29 01:00:34 CEST

These are both used by nicotine+ [ http://www.nicotine-plus.org/ ].  The first is a GeoIP library, and the other is a compiler for speeding up execution of Python code.

Comment 1 Ahmad Samir 2011-05-29 01:04:01 CEST

After Mageia 1 is released, since we're in freeze ATM.

Comment 2 Ahmad Samir 2011-06-15 01:53:39 CEST

Both packages have been imported in Cauldron.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Hardware: i586 => arm
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Comment 3 David Walser 2011-06-18 23:01:54 CEST

Thanks Ahmad.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but looking at the changelog list, I see that you did import python-geoip, but not python-pysco.  I see that you imported python-psycopg, which is apparently some PostgreSQL thing, but the request was for python-pysco, which is a compiler and is unrelated as far as I know.

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED => (none)

Comment 4 Ahmad Samir 2011-06-18 23:27:46 CEST

You're right; I didn't import python-psyco, sorry about that.

However, python-psyco doesn't work with python 2.7 according to http://psyco.sourceforge.net/
unfortunately we can't have it in the repos since we only have python 2.7 and 3.x in Cauldron.

Closing.

The message there didn't change, it is still
 "16 July 2010 - Python 2.7 is unsupported so far."

So closing again. Feel free to reopen when Python 2.7 is supported.

I'm removing GeoIP from the summary, because that part of the package requests got fixed

On the website for psyco there appears to be a 2.7 version, but there look to be several different copies of the source tree and it isn't clear which one is the most up to date.

When, while testing, they are happy with the results of one of those packages, they'll spread the message that python 2.7 is supported
