I detected the following error in the dependencies of this ports: devel/ipython has a dependency on devel/py-ipykernel, but is only used to build the docs. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/blob/5.8.0/docs/autogen_config.py#L6
devel/py-ipykernel should have a run dependency on devel/ipython, witch is not specified right now. https://github.com/ipython/ipykernel/blob/4.8.2/setup.py#L84 This would create a circular dependency. Of couse, the correct path would be: - build ipython - build ipykernel (depends on ipython) - build ipython-docs (depends on ipython and ipykernel) But I would need to create devel/ipython-docs to be built separately from devel/ipython. Another positive side is that this would make a single doc folder if one needs the python3 and python2 version of ipython. Any issues or recommendations ? Cheers. Elias.
