So far:
1 person says they want python37 to use as an intermediate step in
porting code that is on 27 (but it's not clear to me why this needs to
be done in pkgsrc HEAD vs 2022Q3).
I got one private note encouraging 37 removal.
I haven't seen any commits addressing the 37 issues and I am still
seeing failing bulk builds.
I thought about just removing 37 from the default ACCEPTABLE variable,
and I think that works ok. I got a private nod on the concept. So
the base python37 would be present, but no py37-foo would be built.
(Anyone can of course change their copy of pkgsrc and build whatever
they want, specifically including locally reverting the no-37.) As
part of this we'd say:
37 can't be in ACCEPTED (because it would insert chaos back into
bulk builds). We'd remove it, and say no to commits that add it.
37 could be in INCOMPATIBLE (because that doesn't hurt, and it could
help people that locally revert the 'no 37'.
If this partial 37 removal causes build/scan failures that can't be
satisfactorily and completely fixed in a 24h kind of time frame, we'll
proceed immediately to full removal.
Here's the list of ACCEPTED/37:
./devel/py-gobject/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 37 27
./devel/py-backports.cached-property/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 37 # included in Python 3.8+
./devel/py-pkgutil_resolve_name/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 38 37
./graphics/blender-lts/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 38 37
./lang/mozjs78/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 39 38 37
./mail/fetchmailconf/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 310 39 38 37
./math/py-numpy16/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 37 27
./wip/py-qtawesome/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 3110 310 39 38 37
./www/py-webpy/Makefile:PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED= 27 # not yet ported as of 0.37
and I'm inclined to alllow the backports one and drop the rest.
Here's what I intend to commit tomorrow, plus dropping the previous 37 ACCEPTED:
