Hello!
It is common to have both python-2 and python-3 packages installed.
To help transition it is convenient to have bin/python to point to
python-2 binary.
Now for every X in python3X we have a bin/python3.X binary.
So for every new python3.X release one should change shebang line in
scripts.
I propose to tweak python3X ports so they create bin/python3 symlink
pointing to the installed python3.X binary so that people can always use
'python3' name.
What do you think?
I think it's a great idea, at least minimising weird breakage when python
is updated.
Have you a patch? Also, what do other OSes do?
Chris
AFAIK, linuces has python2 and python3 symlinks. So this is generally
common idea. And I +1 for it.
