That won't help if the python3 version of a package looks in /usr/bin/ and finds the python2 version. ... I am talking about things currently installed in /usr/bin and /usr/share, so what python calls scripts and data, respectively. libs are not a problem because they are already in a versioned directory.
Then your above point is moot. A python3 lib/app can only "look for" other python3 libs. Not apps (scripts). If a python3 lib *executes* another python app, it doesn't care if it's python3 or python2, as long as it's the same app.
That is only true if the scripts are identical between the python 2 and python 3 versions. That may be the case but you can't assume it.
Sorry to double (or triple) post, but even if the scripts are identical, it still doesn't really solve the issue because we still have duplicates that need to be dealt with somehow. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
