Bug#708138: lintian: python-script-but-no-python-dep should accept python3.3
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.10.4
Severity: normal
This may be somewhat similar to bug#673734.
I had script started as:
#!/usr/bin/python3
The python3 setup.py with dh --with python3 seems to convert this to:
#! /usr/bin/python3.3
(Please note space.)
I guess, it substitute with the current default python version 3.3
chosen by the python3 package.
Anyway, I get lintian ERROR with somewhat strange texts with my
package debmake in NEW.
For dh --with ..., we should use python2 for python 2 series and python3 for
python 3 series. dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral are history.
I have "Depends: python3" in binary and get the following. This seems to
limit only to python and do not accept python3 variants.
(The same result with version of lintian in testing/sid=2.5.10.5 too)
$ lintian -i debmake_4.0.0-1_amd64.changes
E: debmake: python-script-but-no-python-dep usr/bin/debmake
N:
N: Packages with Python scripts should depend on the package python. Those
N: with scripts that specify a specific version of Python must depend on
N: that version of Python (exactly).
N:
N: For example, if a script in the package uses #!/usr/bin/python, the
N: package needs a dependency on python. If a script uses
N: #!/usr/bin/python2.6, the package needs a dependency on python2.6. A
N: dependency on python (>= 2.6) is not correct, since later versions of
N: Python may not provide the /usr/bin/python2.6 binary.
N:
N: If you are using debhelper, adding ${python:Depends} to the Depends
N: field and ensuring dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral are run during the build
N: should take care of adding the correct dependency.
N:
N: In some cases a weaker relationship, such as Suggests or Recommends,
N: will be more appropriate.
