Hi,
I'm trying to package shedskin, a Python 2 native (to C++) compiler.
It only supports python2 in upstream.
If I package it the usual way (like other Python packages in Guix),
python2-shedskin works fine, however, python-shedskin won't and basically
shouldn't be there.
How to best proceed?
What I have:
(define-public python-shedskin
(package
(name "python-shedskin")
(version "0.9.4")
(source
(origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri (string-append
"https://github.com/shedskin/shedskin/releases/download/v"; version
"/shedskin-0.9.4.tgz"))
(sha256
(base32
"0nzwrzgw1ga8rw6f0ryq7zr9kkiavd1cqz5hzxkcbicl1dk7kz41"))))
(build-system python-build-system)
(inputs `(("python-setuptools" ,python-setuptools)
("libgc" ,libgc)))
(propagated-inputs `(("pcre" ,pcre)))
(home-page "https://shedskin.github.io/";)
(synopsis "Python Native Compiler")
(description "This is a native compiler for a subset of Python.")
(license (list gpl3 bsd-3 expat))
))
(define-public python2-shedskin
(let ((shedskin (package-with-python2
(strip-python2-variant python-shedskin))))
(package (inherit shedskin)
(native-inputs `(("python2-setuptools" ,python2-setuptools)
,@(package-native-inputs shedskin))))))
