Hi,
I'm having a problem with packaging crmsh for RH distros on OBS: It seems that the rpm packages end up requiring /usr/bin/python which does not exist on those distributions:
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/crmsh/issues/161
I can't see any direct requirement in the spec file which would do this other than requiring python itself.
You get automatic requirements on shebang interpreters, i.e., what is listed after "#!" at start of your script.
We're actually moving away from using /usr/bin/python. Would it help if you changed it to /usr/bin/python2 ?
For what it's worth, we're moving away from /usr/bin/python in Fedora as well. We recommend using /usr/bin/python2 or /usr/bin/python3 for the version of python it should be used with.
Thank you, your recommendations seems to have put me on the right track. I managed to clean up the binary requirements, but something weird is happening when I change the shebang to /usr/bin/python2: The rpm ends up still depending on /usr/bin/python. Could it be because /usr/bin/python2 is a symlink to /usr/bin/python in the build environment or something like that?
Maybe. At least in RHEL/CentOS 7, /usr/bin/python is a symlink to /usr/bin/python2, which is a symlink to /usr/bin/python2.7, so I doubt it.
You may have something somewhere still declaring "/usr/bin/python" or "/usr/bin/env python" as a shebang.
Something is wrong if it's generating a dependency of /bin/python, though. That means something is specifically setting "/bin/python" as a shebang.
I could define /usr/bin/python to a specific package given that there is no definition which exact python version is to be used in RedHat (from what I read here). In which distros (or OBS projects) do you have this problem exactly? -- Adrian Schroeter email: adrian@suse.de SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
