#38661: python32 @3.2.3 doesn't create a python3 link while python2 is installed ----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: macports-tickets@… macports.jgonggrijp@… | Status: new Type: defect | Milestone: Priority: Normal | Version: 2.1.3 Component: ports | Port: python32 python33 python31 Keywords: | ----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- I have python26, python27 and python32 installed on Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Xcode 3.2.6. Normally when Python 2 and Python 3 are installed alongside on a unixy system there should be both a python2 link and a python3 link, as detailed in PEP 394: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/ MacPorts does indeed install a python2 command, but no python3 command. This is what I get when I run {{{ls /opt/local/bin/python*}}}: {{{ /opt/local/bin/python /opt/local/bin/python2.6-config /opt/local/bin/pythonw /opt/local/bin/python-config /opt/local/bin/python2.7 /opt/local/bin/pythonw2 /opt/local/bin/python2 /opt/local/bin/python2.7-config /opt/local/bin/pythonw2.6 /opt/local/bin/python2-config /opt/local/bin/python3.2 /opt/local/bin/pythonw2.7 /opt/local/bin/python2.6 /opt/local/bin/python3.2-config /opt/local/bin/pythonw3.2 }}} Usually I have python27 selected as the default version, but changing that setting to python32 does not change the above directory listing. This may also affect other python3x ports; I haven't checked whether that is the case.
