Well, when trying to emerge mailman, I do get the masked packages warning, but I can't get the bug, bugs.gentoo.org seems to be down. On Sun, 06 Sep 2020 09:39:41 -0400, John Covici wrote: > > hmmm, in my /var/db/repos/gentoo/profile/packages.mask, I only have > mailman3 as unmasked. I am on

hmmm, in my /var/db/repos/gentoo/profile/packages.mask, I only have mailman3 as unmasked. I am on the ~ tree, so that may make some difference. On Sun, 06 Sep 2020 05:55:48 -0400, Matthias Hanft wrote: > > Neil Bothwick wrote: > > > > Have you read https://bugs.gentoo.org/710134 ? > > *Now* I

[gentoo-user] mailman 2.1 replacement? (Python 2.7 issue)

2020-09-06 Thread Matthias Hanft
Hi, I'm using mailman (stable 2.1.33) for several mailing lists. Since there seems to be only a Python 2.7 version, mailman is now masked and will soon be removed from the tree. I have already copied the mailman ebuild to a local overlay, but that's surely not the best idea in the long run.
