Package: texlive-extra-utils Version: 2013.20131219-1 Tags: patch I just read about pythontex in TUGboat - it sounds great!
I was a little surprised that it says, though, that it's only for Python 2.7. So I looked at the code, and it has support for Python 3.2+; yay! Unfortunately, though, the invocation doesn't allow this to work on Debian: /usr/bin/pythontex -> /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/pythontex/pythontex.py has the first line: #!/usr/bin/env python and on Debian, /usr/bin/python is a symlink to python2.7, so the rest of the pythontex.py code, which checks whether python2 or python3 is being used, is effectively redundant. My suggested patch is as follows: Create a copy of pythontex.py in /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/pythontex, called say pythontex3-init.py (pythontex3.py is already used), which has the first line #!/usr/bin/python3 or #!/usr/bin/env python3 and symlink /usr/bin/pythontex3 to it. That way, pythontex will use Python 2.7 and pythontex3 will use Python 3.x. Julian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
