* [gentoo-dev] Package up for grabs: dev-python/pybluez

Hello,

The Python team no longer wishes to maintain the following package:

dev-python/pybluez

It has no tests, and it'd be better for it to have a dedicated
maintainer with working bluez and possible a use case for one of its
reverse dependencies:

app-mobilephone/ganyremote
app-mobilephone/wammu
kde-misc/kanyremote

There's an open version bump request, missing dep bug and the package
needs testing with newer Python versions.  However, all revdeps are
py2.7-only.

I'm using lightblue for rapid development to reverse-engineer/test
behavior of some Bluetooth devices. Mostly as there was NOTHING else
that made it easy to get it done.

I don't care for the other reverse deps, but I'm willing to port
lightblue to py3 and bump pybluez.

Is anybody willing to maintain these 3?
If not, lastrite them subject to upstream not doing the 2.7 ports.

I'll see about the these.

Doesn't it work via pip/virtualenv?  I'm not going to stop you from
maintaining it if you want to but we generally recommend using
virtualenv for stuff that doesn't have end-user program kind of revdeps.

I reviewed most of the dev-python/lightblue codebase over my flights,
and hereby recind my intent to port it to py3.

I converted my coding to Golang's bluetooth instead.

Please last-rite dev-python/lightblue with these.

I think dev-python/pybluez can stay for the moment, as it's maintained
upstream. I'll keep pybluez if there are no other maintainers.

pybluez supports python3.  However, someone needs to test it with newer
Python 3 versions.
