bootstrap installs python2 and python3 on debian #79

Open trunneml opened 8 years ago

trunneml commented 8 years ago

Running the bootstrap script on debian installs python2 (python depends on python2.7) and python3 (virtualenv depends on python3). What is the prefered python version for simp_le?

kuba commented 8 years ago

simp_le is meant to work exactly the same on py2 and py3 - if you have an option I would suggest running py3

trunneml commented 8 years ago

I know that simp_le runs under py2 and py3. But is that a reason to install Python2 and Python3 on debian systems using the ./bootstrap.sh script in this repository?

kuba commented 8 years ago

bootstrap.sh installs only python and python-dev; I'm not sure what you mean

@kuba it installs python, python-dev and depending on the distro version virtualenv or python-virtualenv. On the latest debian and ubuntu python installs Python 2.7. virtualenv on the otherside is a Python 3 package and has a dependency on python3 (https://packages.debian.org/jessie/virtualenv). When you install virtualenvyou also installing python3. In the end both Python versions are installed, so could you please reopen the ticket.

I noted the same behavior and wondered why it had to get both versions. As illustration, here's the list of packages it installed on a Debian 8 server:
