Yikes for me too. I’ve had a quick look at the Makefile (look for $(LN)) and found that all scripts use symbolic links, but the python3 to python3.y link is hard. I wonder why this is. FTR, downstream packagers may change this. Example on Debian: /usr/bin/python3: symbolic link to `python3.2' /usr/bin/python3.2: symbolic link to `python3.2mu' Cheers _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
