Regarding openSUSE, it would be much better to drop such broken packages that leaving them. It is only frustration for users and bad image for the distro. Regarding GNS3, as much as I like it, admittedly it is a very messy and hard to package code base. And it breaks stuff often between versions. It also has a fast evolving pace, so generally distros are far behind in terms of versions. So, I went to a more pythonic installation way with virtualenv. http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ If you have never played with it, it may ask you a little effort to learn it, but it is worth it. It will be useful to you with any Python project installation, without messing with your host environment. You can make safe tests and isolate each project with its own dependencies. Some people have followed the Docker way too, this might be a good solution too (except for the GUI). Good luck ! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
