Re: Any suggested procedure if upstream does not provide any build helper like setup.py

Hi,

I would like to build debian for source code of rtai with python-3 dependencies. Could you please explain brief on modification of building rules for python-3.

Appreciate your suggestions. I need those badly!!

Thanks
