Returning to the original question... On May 29, 2014, at 08:30 PM, Donald Stufft wrote:
>Does anything other than tox depend on virtualenv? The real question is whether any Python 2 packages in the archive try to import virtualenv, rather than say shell out to /usr/bin/virtualenv. AFAICT, only pbundler does this. There aren't too many reverse dependencies (or rev build deps) that I can see, though there are ways such imports could be hiding. I basically grepped for "import virtualenv" and "from virtualenv import". So let's say pbundler is the only thing other than tox that does this. There's a newer version of pbundler on PyPI that claims to be Python 3 compatible and I think pbundler is only used as a command line script (it's a leaf package afaict). If we just switch python-virtualenv to Python 3-only, obviously tox will have to be updated, but so will pbuilder. I'll see if that works and file a bug against pbuilder, NMU'ing a newer version if necessary. Cheers, -Barry
