• [gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/2] python-utils-r1.eclass: Loosen minimal Python

    From =?UTF-8?q?Micha=C5=82=20G=C3=B3rny?@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jul 15 18:00:01 2023
    Loosen minimal Python versions to accept any version in a given slot.
    Lower bounds are cumbersome to maintain and cause problems when
    upgrading outdated systems, particularly when sys-libs/glibc
    is involved.

    We could technically apply some hack to make any-r1 dependency checks
    to conditionally ignore minimal versions but that sounds like
    unnecessary complexity. In the end, minimum versions were primarily
    enforced to make sure users got the latest bugfixes but that doesn't
    seem strictly necessary.
