New `depends_on :python` Dependency.
New `depends_on :python3` Dependency.
To avoid having multiple formulae with endings -py2 and -py3,
we will handle support for different pythons (2.x vs. 3.x)
in the same formula.
Further brewed vs. external python will be transparently supported.
The formula also gets a new object `python`, which is false if
no Python is available or the user has disabled it. Otherwise
it is defined and provides several support methods:
python.site_packages # the site-packages in the formula's Cellar
python.global_site_packages
python.binary # the full path to the python binary
python.prefix
python.version
python.version.major
python.version.minor
python.xy # => e.g. "python2.7"
python.incdir # includes of python
python.libdir # the python dylib library
python.pkg_config_path # used internally by brew
python.from_osx?
python.framework?
python.universal?
python.pypy?
python.standard_caveats # Text to set PYTHONPATH for python.from_osx?
python.if3then3 # => "" for 2.x and to "3" for 3.x.
Further, to avoid code duplication, `python` takes an optional
block that is run twice if the formula defines depends_on
:python AND :python3.
python do
system python, 'setup.py', "--prefix=#{prefix}"
end

* Use new "url" features
* Use keg_only DSL
* Use "skip_clean :all" DSL
* Whitespace and style cleanups
* Make bash invocations less silly
* Use new man2-man8 helpers
* Remove "FileUtils." since it is included in Formula
* Use real names for deps instead of aliases
* ENV.x11 now updates path, so remove that from individual brews
brewkit.rb changes ENV destructively, so lets not do that everytime a formula
is required. Now it's possible for other tools to require a formula
description without worrying about side-effects.
Large refactor to Formula, mostly improving reliability and error handling but
also layout and readability.
General improvements so testing can be more complete.
Patches are automatically downloaded and applied for Formula that return a
list of urls from Formula::patches.
Split out the brew command logic to facilitate testing.
Facility from Adam Vandenberg to allow selective cleaning of files, added
because Python doesn't work when stripped.
Moved Forumla and Cellar/homebrew into Library.
This way the homebrew core files are more sensibly placed, Cellar is
more internally consistent and only generated. And Homebrew is ready for
use straight out of the tarball.
