Actually, more precisely one needs to distinguish A. sage-system-python (see build/bin/sage-system-python and build/tox.ini) This is a minimal build requirement. All Python versions (2.x, 3.x) listed in build/tox.ini are supposed to be supported, though I am not sure if some of the oldest ones have seen much testing. B. the python3 accepted by python3/spkg-configure.m4 for using for venv. There is nothing wrong with an spkg that declares python3 as a build dependency and then uses sage-python23 (or just "python3" now...) at build time. This is, after all, the same python that we use for "pip install". I haven't looked at the specific ticket. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
