Subject: kdevelop-python: Python 2 support missing
Package: kdevelop-python
Version: 1.7.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   I would like to use kdevelop to program/debug a larger application that requires Python 2.7 (OpenERP/Odoo). Unfortunately, when I start debugging in kdevelop I get the message "Sorry, debugging is only supported for Python 3.x applications". Kdevelop-python is the only python plugin in Debian and supports only python 3. When installing kdev-python from ubuntu I don't get this message (although there are other problems). With python 2 still in widespread use this is a major issue.

Lots of regards, Jacob.

Unfortunately, when I start debugging in kdevelop I get the message "Sorry, debugging is only supported for Python 3.x applications". Kdevelop-python is the only python plugin in Debian and supports only python 3. When installing kdev-python from ubuntu I don't get this message (although there are other problems). With python 2 still in widespread use this is a major issue.

When we packaged kdevelop-python years ago, we used the version that
supports Python 3 using the system libpython library.  At that time
(kdevelop written using Qt4/kdelibs 4.x) upstream used to release also
a kdevelop-python version for Python 2, embedding a modified copy of
libpython, which is a big no-no for Debian.

Since the switch to Qt5/KDE Frameworks 5.x, upstream releases only
kdevelop-python for Python 3, and thus this is not possible anymore.
(Meanwhile, Python 2 is on its way for EOL, so at this point it should
be better to switch to Python 3 anyway...)

Thanks for your report,
