https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250379 --- Comment #6 from James French <james@french.id.au> --- (In reply to Jan Beich from comment #5) > Why is devel/py-contextlib2 disabled for python >= 3.8? Officially Python 3.8+ are not on the supported versions list for contextlib2. The last supported version is Python 3.7 see: https://pypi.org/project/contextlib2/ It's python though, so unless it's doing something with a dropped/modified stdlib it's not a huge surprise that it works fine. > Why python 3.6 and 3.7 cannot use default "contextlib" instead of "contextlib2"? After a quick code review of what that library is pulled in for (cathing an exception), they probably can. This version of CherryPy still has Python 2 support & contextlib2 is required for that. I'll apply the patch to python > 3.2 (earliest version that shipped with contextlib) and drop contextlib2 as a dependency for those versions. > Maybe combine into one file and document the patch origin in the header. Can do, I'll submit an updated patch shortly that does all of the above. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.help
