> Also, is it possible to test this by ./sage -f something, or would one
have to take a fresh tarball and replace the Python spkg?
Hi Karl,
I am mainly developing from sage-on-gentoo at the moment. I need to make a
current python-2.7.1 spkg to match. I will update the description and give
the patch order when there is a spkg (feel free to make one). The patch
have initially been made against 4.7.1.alpha0 and the current version
works against 4.7.1.alpha1. You would get failures against a 4.7 because
#7377 finally landed.
I think the best course of action will be to start from scratch, it may
even be useful to host an alternative tarball somewhere because the change
in python version will be extremely messy. I don't know if we can do it
without breaking sage -upgrade or being overly complicated.
In the meantime you could have a look at #11244 (which I need to update
for 4.7.1.alpha1 because of #10334).
