Kim van der Riet commented on QPIDIT-136:
-----------------------------------------
Removing this reference from PYTHON3PATH causes problems finding modules when
running some Python 3 shims. It appears that some shims are using the
{{qpid_interop_test.qit_errors}} and {{qpid_interop_test.qit_jms_types}}
modules.
The use of these modules are legit, but pose the question of how to package
them when they are used by both Python 2 and Python 3.
However, the jms_hdrs_props_test is referencing
{{qpid_interop_test.qit_common}} in order to use the static method
{{QitTestTypeMap.merge_dicts()}}, and this is in turn forcing the inclusion of
modules {{qpid_interop_test.qit_broker_props}}, {{qpid_interop_test.qit_shim}}
and {{qpid_interop_test.qit_xunit_log}}. Most of these will not currently run
under Python 3.
Proposed solution:
# During installation, manually create a
{{/lib/python3.x/site-packages/qpid_interop_test}} directory (where python3.x
is the current version of Python 3), then manually create symlinks to the
{{qpid_interop_test.qit_errors}} and {{qpid_interop_test.qit_jms_types}}
modules. Then replace the {{PYTHON3PATH}} reference to
{{lib/python2.7/site-packages}} with {{lib/ptyon3.x/site-packages}} (again, 3.x
representing the actual version of Python 3 installed).
# The static method used in {{QitTestTypeMap.merge_dicts()}} is a 4-line
static method to merge 2 dictionaries. Rather than use this function (and hence
inherit all the other non-Python3 dependent modules too), copy this function
into the {{JmsHdrsPropsTestSender}} class as a static method, and use that
instead.

> Project: Apache QPID Interoperability Test Suite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Installation
> Affects Versions: 0.1.0
> Reporter: Kim van der Riet
> Assignee: Kim van der Riet
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.2.0
>
>
> The environment variable {{PYTHON3PATH}} is set up as a holder for
> {{PYTHONPATH}} when running the shims under Python 3. After installing, the
> value of PYTHON3PATH contains a path segment containing
> {{lib/python2.7/site-packages}}.
