       And the next big blocker for #Python 3.15 in #Gentoo is time-machine. Which is obviously broken. There's a patch but it's #slop and complex, and it's sitting for 3 months already with no reply. Because obviously patching CPython internals is so much a better idea than freezegun ever were. All these time-based tests need all the ricing you can get; portability doesn't matter.https://github.com/adamchainz/time-machine/pull/618

       @mgorny > I'd like to respond to this, but after more than a month and a hundred other packages I've been working on, I've already lost all the context here.That's what happens if you don't put your heart into the patch.

       @xdej @mgorny so... what's the next best scripting language with access to syscalls these days? Perl?

       @xdej@mgorny OpenWrt's "ucode" lang could be good too if they added a bit more of POSIX bindings and if it got adopted by other distros https://github.com/jow-/ucode

       @wolf480pl @mgorny honestly, it happens to me as well. It's not reasonable to be able to respond to feedback after months, when we need to fix so many packages. AI or not, this is no different.

       @hroncok I guess it's different when you've spent weeks working on a single patch, vs a small fix among many other small ones
