hi list,

i've just tried to install net-im/toot, and was stymied by PR#274411[0]
("devel/py-urwid Update to 2.2.x breaks several python packages") which
has caused devel/py-urwid to be broken.

the proper fix for this seems to be D39288[1] ("devel/py-setuptools_scm:
update to 8.0.4"), but that's a huge update and has been in review since
March.

in the mean time, anything that depends on devel/py-urwid is apparently
broken.  there's a patch on #274411 that claims to fix this which is
currently in maintainer-approval?(python@) - is there any chance this
patch could be landed to fix the urwid situation in the short term?

	regards, lexi.
