Bug #677486. dev-util/staruml-bin =dev-libs/libgcrypt-1.5* # Michał Górny (15 Mar 2019) # pyliblzma installs an old 'lzma' module that is incompatible with # the 'lzma' built-in in Python 3. As a result, programs written # to conditionally import the latter when available (assuming it will # have Python 3 API) are broken by its presence. The suggested # replacement is dev-python/backports-lzma that is backported # from Python 3. # # Yum is the only reverse dependency of pyliblzma left (#643312). Its # last release is from 2011, and the current Gentoo snapshot is # from 2017. Upstream git hosting / gitweb is broken and makes it # impossible to fetch current sources. Fedora is apparently replacing # it with DNF. # # Removal in 30 days.
