This is because opensuse 12.2 doesn't install the expat.py (one of
python's lib) by default, but our native python provides it, use the
native python would fix the problem.
I don't like this.
xml.parsers.expat is a standard Python library that's been integrated since 2.0:
http://docs.python.org/2/library/pyexpat.html#module-xml.parsers.expat
If we can't assume that a distribution has shipped a working Python
we've got bigger problems.
We could sanity check this in some way, maybe in the recipe's
configure step so we can give a nicer message, but I don't think we
should depend on pythonnative when we're talking about a standard
feature of Python.
Hi Ross,
Thanks for the review, please see more comments:
The glib-2.0-native had already depend on python-native before this patch,
the depends chain is:
glib-2.0-native -> python-argparse-native -> python-native
I inherit the glib-2.0-native is for using the ${PYTHON} variable, it doesn't
change its depends, since we had built python-native already, and it works,
it seems more reasonable to use it rather than show error message and let the
user install other pkgs on the host, I think that this is what our native
recipe for.
