While I do not agree that we should keep Python2 compatibility alive, this change is not user facing. The changes only affect thirdparty and build-support python files, so users who run Kudu on environments with Python2 would not be affected. I believe the number of end-users who compile their own Kudu is rather small, and upgrading a build environment to also run Python3 (e.g. with pyenv) should not be as impactful as upgrading on edge/client nodes. -- To view, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/20079 To unsubscribe, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/settings Gerrit-Project: kudu Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-MessageType: comment Gerrit-Change-Id: I824daa0cf151e89f783db98d46fb23ce9e267093 Gerrit-Change-Number: 20079 Gerrit-PatchSet: 1 Gerrit-Owner: Attila Bukor <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Abhishek Chennaka <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Alexey Serbin <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Attila Bukor <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Kudu Jenkins (120) Gerrit-Reviewer: Marton Greber <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Wang Xixu <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Zoltan Chovan <[email protected]> Gerrit-Comment-Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2023 19:40:02 +0000 Gerrit-HasComments: No
