Description Martin Tarenskeen 2012-10-01 08:27:48 UTC

Description of problem:
When using 2to3 to convert a python script that has a line like
#!/usr/bin/python 
or
#!/usr/bin/env python
After conversion "python" is not changed to "python3" for Fedora usage.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python-tools-2.7.3-7.2.fc17

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. write a python script that starts with 
#!/usr/bin/python or "#!/usr/bin/env python"
2. run 2to3 on the script
  
Actual results:
the #! line is not changed

Expected results:
#!/usr/bin/python3 or
#!/usr/bin/env python3

Additional info:
This is something that cannot be fixed upstream I guess, because it's a Fedora decision to use /usr/bin/python3 for python-3.x and /usr/bin/python for python-2.x

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-03 20:13:19 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-31 19:48:19 UTC

Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
