PyEPL building fail under SnowLeopard
| Reported by: | macports@… | Owned by: | macports-tickets@… |

| Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | |
| Component: | ports | Version: | 1.8.1 |
| Keywords: | snowleopard | Cc: | jameskyle@… |
| Port: | py26-pyepl |
Description (last modified by jmroot (Joshua Root))
PyEPL suffers from two issues: Dependency on active wire, which is broken according to Ticket #21662.
But even if you manually exclude the dependency, you run into a building/activation error which is connected to a bad directory structure.
DebugLog attached.

After spending more than a few hours on this, it looks like a squarely upstream problem. As such, and in combination with this library no longer being used in my lab, I'm changing to nomaintainer. I'll stay on the cc list and if the original author updates the library for building on Snow Leopard I'll push the changes.
The problem is that the activewire library/module is deeply coupled with pyepl unless I'm missing something.

The activewire dependency was removed in r59618. James, was this because it failed to build at the time, and can it be brought back now?
PyEPL's build system is broken in that it gives a 0 return code when it fails. So I imagine what happened is that it failed to build, but MacPorts thought it had succeeded, but it hadn't installed any files, so it then failed to activate.
