Forwarding this here to get more attention. There was a number of
similar reports about failures in py-sip on ports@.

-------- Original Message --------
Subject: python 2.5 upgrade: error in devel/py-sip

devel/py-sip port failed to get upgraded to python 2.5 using standard
procedure. This port is used by py-qt which is used by some python GUI
applications.

The reason for the failure is changes in object.h, struct
PyHeapTypeObject: fields type and name were renamed in 2.5 to ht_type
and ht_name correspondingly.  I was able to get the port updated and
working [tested] by simply blanket replacing occurrences of "super.type"
and "super.name" with "super.ht_type" and "super.ht_name".

Thus the port probably needs to have a python-version-specific patch.

P.S. the port doesn't seem to have a maintainer.
