Description	Flags
Patch to devel's libsemanage.spec to add a python3 subpackage	none
libsemanage-2.0.45-support-multiple-python-builds.patch	none

Description Dave Malcolm 2010-04-13 20:07:04 UTC

Please can you add a libsemanage-python3 subpackage to the build.

As I understand it SWIG from F11 onwards can generate both Python 2 and Python
3 code, you just have to point it at the correct /usr/bin/python or python3
binary

An example of generalizing a specfile to build two different subpackages can be
seen at bug 536948

Generalize the build to support building the Python bindings against multiple Python runtimes.

Comment 3 Dave Malcolm 2010-04-27 22:20:17 UTC

Compiles, but is barely tested:
[david@surprise devel]$ rpm -q libsemanage-python3
libsemanage-python3-2.0.45-4.fc14.x86_64
[david@surprise devel]$ python3
Python 3.1.2 (r312:79147, Mar 21 2010, 16:44:26) 
[GCC 4.4.3 20100127 (Red Hat 4.4.3-4)] on linux2
