Now that we have dev-util/pkgconfig 0.29.2, there is no need to
keep third-party patch for avoiding cross-build issues in
dev-util/strace. Let's simply drop the patch, and move strace to
portage-stable.

The scripts that invoked `cros_workon` without specifying a path to
the script were not calling the internal `cros_workon` directly, but
rather a copy installed in `/usr/bin/cros_workon`.
`/usr/bin/cros_workon` comes from the `coreos-base/cros-devutil` and
is a wrapper script that sources `common.sh` file to figure the
location of the `scripts` and finally invokes the internal
`cros_workon`. Curious thing is that the sourced `common.sh` comes
from the `/usr/lib/crosutils` directory and contents of the directory
come from the `dev-util/crosutils` package. And that `common.sh` is
different from the one in the scripts directory, but fortunately the
part that detects the path to the `scripts` directory is the same. I'm
not sure where where exactly the copy of `common.sh` in
`/usr/lib/crosutils` comes from - likely from somewhere in
`https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/crosutils`.
Just cut the middle layers and call the internal copy of `cros_workon`
directly.
Apparently the `coreos-devel/sdk-extras` was originally meant to work
as a meta package to pull in all the optional packages in the SDK at once.
It has been unmaintained since 2~3 years, so an attempt of `emerge
coreos-devel/sdk-extras` will give you a huge list of conflicts to
resolve. It is difficult to resurrect sdk-extras at the moment.
Delete `coreos-devel/sdk-extras` completely. Doing that, we can delete
more than 20 other packages from the source tree.
Now that coreos-devel/sdk-extras are gone, delete unnecessary configs
in profiles, for app-portage/repoman, dev-go/glide, dev-go/godep,
dev-python/awscli, dev-python/botocore, dev-python/s3transfer.
This version has an officially documented support for python3, so it
plays along our plans of removing python2 in favor of python3. When
the switch actually happens, we will need to update the ebuild to
mention the correct path to python modules. The path contains python
version, which is a hindrance. Would be nice to have it hidden behind
some variable.
There is also a version 2.4.0.2, but it's marked as a prerelease on
github, so decided to package 2.3.1.1 instead.
This is some fallout from converting scripts from python2 to
python3. Output received from the functions in subprocess module now
return bytearrays, but we operate on them as if they were a text. So
decode the bytearrays to strings. Otherwise we are either getting some
junk values passed to the command line utilities (for example:
`b'/dev/loop2'` instead of `/dev/loop2`), or exceptions are thrown,
because a function expected a string.
This is just a conversion done by 2to3 with a manual updates of
shebangs to mention python3 explicitly. The fixups for bytearray vs
string issues will follow up.
