"'--active' option cannot be used" From: "Arttu V." To: gentoo-user Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Archives-Salt: 23e31f0d-2160-4ded-b395-ca87623bc775 X-Archives-Hash: 0040f893bb1083c92b1dc7921c5ef517 Hello, Can anybody hint what on Earth this following message means, I've never seen anything like it: * Messages for package dev-python/sip-4.9.3-r1: * ERROR: dev-python/sip-4.9.3-r1 failed: * PYTHON(): '--active' option cannot be used in ebuilds of packages supporting installation for multiple versions of Python * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 48: Called src_install * environment, line 3362: Called python_need_rebuild * environment, line 3231: Called PYTHON '-A' '--ABI' * environment, line 205: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * die "${FUNCNAME}(): '--active' option cannot be used in ebuilds of packages supporting installation for multiple versions of Python"; I can see the most recent change in the eclass touching this part over at s.g.o, as well as read the code, but it didn't make me any wiser so far: http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/eclass/python.eclass?rev=1.82&view=log But then again, it says it fixes something for the 2.1-series portage users. Is this now broken for us overly brave portage 2.2_rc users? -- Arttu V.
