Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->gnome Over to maintainer Responsible Changed From-To: gnome->python Something went horribly wrong with your python ports. I got here: $ ls -l /usr/local/bin/python* -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 1022960 17 øíj 11:21 /usr/local/bin/python* -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 1022960 17 øíj 11:21 /usr/local/bin/python2.4* -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 4696 17 øíj 11:21 /usr/local/bin/python-shared* -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 4696 17 øíj 11:21 /usr/local/bin/python-shared2.4* Responsible Changed From-To: python->gnome Actually, since Python 2.4 is the default, a link is made to bin/python. When a non-default version is installed no link is made. This is the expected behavior, and so the best solution is the original patch supplied by the submitter. Responsible Changed From-To: gnome->python Do I understand it correctly that when user installs _only_ python 2.5, he will get no python binary in path? Sounds like a seriously flawed approach. Responsible Changed From-To: python->gnome That IS the case. It's the approach taken by most other parties. The default supported python is installed as python and other versions are installed by version. Responsible Changed From-To: gnome->python I don't know about 'most other parties', but in FreeBSD Ports Collection, all perl and java ports try hard to always provide a non-versioned binary to the user. Please reconsider your attitude here. Responsible Changed From-To: python->freebsd-python Canonicalize. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=104560 Manually adding to audit trail: See the maintainer patch in ports/106120. Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-python->freebsd-ports The patch in ports/106120 is not from the maintainer (which is gnome@) and the PR has been closed without commit. Assign this to ports@ since the responsible party is not clear. Please do not reassign this from gnome@ to python@ and back without coming to a consensus. Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports->freebsd-ports-bugs Of-course it should have been freebsd-ports-bugs@, sorry. Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->alexbl I will take it. State Changed From-To: open->closed After the mailing list debate in February, I decided this is the way to go wrt multiple python version on a same machine. I have checked in this patch. |
I have Python 2.5 installed and PYTHON_VERSION=python2.5 in /etc/make.conf: % ls -ld /var/db/pkg/python* drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Oct 16 11:50 /var/db/pkg/python-2.5/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Oct 16 11:51 /var/db/pkg/python25-2.5_1/ % % pkg_info -L /var/db/pkg/python25-2.5_1/ |grep bin/python /usr/local/bin/python2.5 /usr/local/bin/python2.5-config /usr/local/bin/python-shared2.5 /usr/local/bin/python-shared2.5-config % For some reason there is no bin/python. Then the configure step in x11-toolkits/py-gtk2 fails: /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/py-gtk2# make configure [...] checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.3.5... none configure: error: no suitable Python interpreter found ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. [...] Fix: The following patch to x11-toolkits/py-gtk2 fixes the problem for me: It may be that bin/python nonexistency is a fault in python25-2.5_1 in which case, reassign this PR to python@. Or if it is my fault, please close this PR :) -- Vasil Dimov gro.DSBeerF@dv % A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
