[Announce] Python3.2 (3.2.3) on extras-devel - maemo.org

AapoRantalainen | # 1 | 2013-11-11, 18:15 | Report

Python3.2 on extras-devel.

Compiled with gcc-4.6, so only armel (it can't be compiled with gcc-4.2), without docs (I can locally generate docs, but not in autobuilder). Seems to work.

I'm eager to see packages using it.

Do you plan to go one step further, to python3.3?

Is this challenge (only), or is there something You can do with python3.3, but not with python3.2?

Python2 and python3 are scripting languages. They are "very similar but still different languages". https://wiki.python.org/moin/Python2orPython3

*If you find software written for python3 you can now run it on Fremantle (without converting it to python2).
*If you are planning to write python application for Fremantle, you can use python3, instead of python2.
(*We might soon see Qt5+Python3+PyOtherSide: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=387)

Well, python3.3 has lzma, python3.2 doesn't. I remember the same happening with zipfile module - we had python2.5 on device and couldn't run software because 2.6 introduced zipfile. But it's not a be-all, end-all.

Aapo, what about python3 package to support /usr/bin/python3, py3version (and possibly dh-python later on)
