There is a limit in cost/benefit for supporting every oddball Linux variant on the planet. I know there's a lot of demand for python3, but do we have any v4 examples yet where the python2 packages didn't work for the edge cases like Mint ? Do we have any examples where setup.py didn't work as the ultimate fallback for odd systems ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
