Once it becomes possible to run the testsuite successfully with Python 2.4 on Karmic, we move on to phase 2... On to phase 2...

As mentioned on Getting, Launchpad is not currently supported on Ubuntu Karmic Koala.

This page is a place to collect notes written for and by people living on the bleeding edge and attempting to get Launchpad working on Karmic.

Phase 1 - Python 2.4 - DONE

Phase 1 is to get it working on Karmic using Python 2.4 - this requires rebuilding quite a few Python module packages, as Python 2.4 is not a supported Python version in Karmic. These packages are in my PPA for Launchpad-related packages https://launchpad.net/~maxb/+archive/launchpad and are mostly synced into the official Launchpad PPA.

And that's it. DONE!

On to phase 2...

Phase 2 - Python 2.5

The ultimate goal is to migrate Launchpad to Python 2.6. Rather than go straight to Python 2.6, I (maxb) am focusing on Python 2.5 first as a stepping stone.

Launchpad code itself

https://code.launchpad.net/~maxb/launchpad/python2.5 contains a few fixes:

  • Adjusting the Python version in the Makefiles
  • Adjusting import statements to handle the built-in location of cElementTree in Python 2.5
  • Making buildmailman.py compatible with Python 2.5 sys.path_importer_cache behaviour
  • Fixing Launchpad's TestCase subclass for method renames in unittest in Python 2.5

  • etc...

Launchpad source dependencies - Zope

Thanks to the completion and landing of Gary's zbuildout branch, the zope branch previously listed here is now obsolete.

However, you'll now need to fetch https://code.launchpad.net/~maxb/lp-source-dependencies/python2.5, for a patched version of zope.sendmail, working around a change in the ordering of atexit vs. waiting for non-main non-daemon threads to shut down which otherwise caused various Python processes to hang on shutdown.

Launchpad source dependencies - pygettextpo & pygpgme

The Makefiles of these two make direct reference to Python 2.4, you'll need to amend them appropriately.
