This Lintian bug is causing it to be flagged as an error in our internal build of the kernel, so it got on our radar. The attached patch fixes the problem by having /usr/bin/python2 treated as /usr/bin/python. Would this be an acceptable solution to the problem? If not, what would you recommend? Thank you! Kind regards, Luca Boccassi Brocade Communications Systems From c9a9e433c7734737712f1fc1067bdf6966938ec1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com> Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2016 20:12:09 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Do not match /usr/bin/python2 to python2:any A python2 package does not exist, so dh_python correctly does not generate a dependency. Using /usr/bin/python2 as shebang is required as explained in pep-0394: http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/ --- data/scripts/versioned-interpreters | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/data/scripts/versioned-interpreters b/data/scripts/versioned-interpreters index fff44c2..48b8cc5 100644 --- a/data/scripts/versioned-interpreters +++ b/data/scripts/versioned-interpreters @@ -75,7 +75,7 @@ lua => /usr/bin, lua([\d.]+), lua$1, 40 50 5.1 5.2 octave => /usr/bin, octave([\d.]+), octave$1, 3.0 3.2 php => /usr/bin, php(\d+), php$1-cli, 5, @NO_DEFAULT_DEPS@ pike => /usr/bin, pike([\d.]+), pike$1 | pike$1-core, 7.6 7.8, @NO_DEFAULT_DEPS@ -python => /usr/bin, python([\d.]+), python$1:any | python$1-minimal:any, 2.7, @SKIP_UNVERSIONED@ +python => /usr/bin, python(2\..+|[3-9.]+), python$1:any | python$1-minimal:any, 2.7, @SKIP_UNVERSIONED@ ruby => /usr/bin, ruby([\d.]+), ruby$1, 1.8 1.9, @SKIP_UNVERSIONED@ runghc => /usr/bin, runghc(\d+), ghc$1, 6, ghc scsh => /usr/bin, scsh-([\d.]+), scsh-$1, 0.6 -- 2.1.4
