python-devel is a dependency of gobject-introspection. It would be nice if JHBuild's python-devel requirement could be satisfied by python.py or python2.7.pc or python3.pc or etc. But JHBuild doesn't support this yet. I raised a bug [1]. In the meanwhile, add 'python-devel' to skip in ~/.config/jhbuildrc, or use --nodeps, or add check_sysdeps=False to ~/.config/jhbuildrc. -- Craig Keogh <[email protected]> [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685147 _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
