Ok, so you can share the prefix for python2, but python3 still needs to be separate (it needs different sources).

It is also possible to write source-compatible packages for python2 and python3. (Obviously, some projects do this, others don't.)

Nah, there are some things that are impossible to make "version agnostic". Source-compatible packages mean they're auto-translatable by 2to3.

Nope, "source-compatible" actually means that the same source runs the same way in python2 and python3. Often through future imports and similar tricks. I guess some things are impossible to do this way, which is probably why not everyone is doing it ;e) m. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
