This is not good, but it is not incorrect. The package was build for only one python2.x version before, and 2.7 will be the last version for 2.x, so hard coding is dirty but works. If you know how to make everything work better, patch is welcomed. > [...] Thanks for you advice, and I'll try to fix those problems. > Now looking at the diff: > [...] OK, what if I join Debian Science Team and make then make a team upload for such a package? Then I can just ask you for patch. I really want to know why people jump in when someone starts to help with a package that few people want to touch, and just be rude to say almost everything he did weren't "appropriate". Though I don't want to start a flame war, but I sincerely want to know if letting a package not usable is way more "appropriate"? Please note that people need to invest some effort and computing power to compile and test such a package like openturns (build takes 20 minutes on an 8-way Xeon cluster node when parallel building is enabled), and usually science related package are difficult to track and maintain. I may need to re-consider my work after this conversation. -- Regards, Aron Xu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
