Re: [Gimp-developer] Future of Python v2 scripts

While it is is feasible to have Python3 as the system default install, it is not practical to remove Python2 from the system. Even if it is not installed by default (which I doubt very much) it will be reachable via the default packaging system (and therefore available as a GIMP dependency).

[Gimp-developer] Future of Python v2 scripts

The latest Ubuntu (15;10) has dropped support for Python V2 (Python V2 is still available via a PPA). Are there any plans to support V3 in Gimp, possibly alongside V2? Maybe as a minimum look at the script's shebang to determine if it is compatible with the supported Python version?

Re: [Gimp-developer] Future of Python v2 scripts

Therte is aproblem in migrating - because converting scripts to Python3 nto that much of a hasle, but current PyGIMP uses PyGTK - and _that_ is a problem - because we should them move the Python itnerface to gobject introspection - and it would imply to move the GIMP parts to use gobjetc
