Re: [gentoo-dev] Question about python compatibility in dev-python/pathlib2
Thanks, I now understand what pathlib2 does, but more importantly found out it is not really needed in that case making the fix even easier =) On Fri, Dec 02, 2022 at 11:35:06AM +0100, Andrew Ammerlaan wrote: Hi, Pathlib2 is a backport, as such it doesn't really make sense to add 3.10 and 3.11 to compat.

[gentoo-dev] Question about python compatibility in dev-python/pathlib2
Hi all, I noticed that a package from an overlay fails to install due to it requiring pathlib2 with python_targets with 3.10 and/or 3.11. So I checked pathlib2's setup.py [0] that it supports newer python versions and wanted to update the ebuild, but noticed My question is whether I should: 1) do some more research/work to bump the versions or 2) update the upstream in case this is something deprecated order 3) whether the updated ebuild with newer python versions should live in the overlay instead.
