[Barry Warsaw, 2010-11-22] > What specifically does dh need to do better now, after you cdbs patch?
it needs someone who likes to program in "you can do it in 1000+1 ways" (aka Perl) ;-), see bugs 596807 and 597105. dh doesn't recognize python3-foo packages and thus doesn't do magic to build/install Python 3 modules/extensions. With my CDBS patch, all you have to do to support Python 3 is adding this line to debian/rules: include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/python3-distutils.mk you can use it with: include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/python-distutils.mk if source pacakge supports both Python 2 and 3; if there's a separate setup.py file for Python 3.X, you can set it in DEB_PYTHON3_SETUP_CMD, etc. -- Piotr Ożarowski Debian GNU/Linux Developer www.ozarowski.pl www.griffith.cc www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: 1D2F A898 58DA AF62 1786 2DF7 AEF6 F1A2 A745 7645 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
