"make dist" doesn't work under Ubuntu 20.04 which uses Python 3 #73

This doesn't seem to be a xmlwrapp issue, is it? It just runs How is bkl installed? |
Of course it would be better to fix it in bkl, but this would require making a new release there, as we install it from the distribution tarball, so I hoped for a workaround here. But you're right, it's probably best to do it there and just update the version being downloaded here to 1.2.7. |
I see. Seeing how the script does so much bkl-specific things, wouldn't the simplest fix be to do
in the script? |
For now I've just added a CI build using Ubuntu 18.04 in a container (see #83) which will allow us to use it beyond the end of 2022, i.e. even after GitHub stops providing it natively, but the long term solution is probably to stop using bkl -- now that the generated solutions are included in the repository itself (or will be once/if #82 is merged), it's not really necessary any longer. |
Running
bkl
indist-hook
target fails under 20.04 because python is now Python 3 and we need Python 2 for it.Unfortunately using
python2
doesn't work everywhere neither (e.g. it fails under Ubuntu 18.04). Other than porting bkl to Python 3 (which is not trivial), is there any way to run it under all systems? All I can think about is to definePYTHON2
env var and use it in the makefile, which is a bit ugly but probably ought to work.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
