The Python team will no longer maintain the following packages. They all need porting to Python 3.7 and newer, and have some obstacle in doing so. They have only few revdeps which we do not maintain.
dev-python/pythondialog dev-python/ramlfications dev-python/repoze-sphinx-autointerface dev-python/robotframework dev-python/sleekxmpp dev-python/sphinxcontrib-issuetracker dev-python/toro dev-python/txaio dev-python/txAMQP dev-python/txgithub dev-python/txrequests pythondialog is used by net-analyzer/gvm-tools (jonas.licht@) and net-vpn/protonvpn-cli (ilmostro7@). It is missing tests. ramlfications are used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@ indicate he'll revive it). The tests fail already and it's on 2016 snapshot. It seems pretty much dead. repoze-sphinx-autointerface is used by dev-python/txtorcon (just taken by dolsen@). It is missing tests. robotframework is needed only for dev-python/robotbackgroundlogger (zmedico@). It is missing tests. sleekxmpp is used by net-im/err (pinkbyte@) and net-im/spectrum2 (conikost@, andrey_utkin@). It is broken with py3.7 and upstream has archived the repository. sphinxcontrib-issuetracker is used only by dev-python/pydocstyle (python@, monsieurp@, andrewammerlaan@). Either the tests or the whole package is broken with Sphinx 3 (and possibly older). toro is needed only by dev-python/thriftpy (sci@). Some of the tests are failing (already) and no upstream activity since 2016. txaio is only used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@) and sci-libs/vtk (sci@). All tests fail with a test suite error. txAMQP by dev-python/carbon (patrick@, grobian@). Tests require a system instance of rabbitmq server. txgithub is the only package that I managed to test up to Python 3.8 (though either test coverage or API coverage is near zero). It is used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@). txrequests is used by dev-util/buildbot (dolsen@). It is missing tests. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
