Debian's project to port the Python codebase already started: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/04/msg00005.html Django 1.6 which is used for Toaster already runs on Python3: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/python3/ Python's porting documentation: https://docs.python.org/3/howto/pyporting.html This bug tracks the work needed to run bitbake under Python3. I propose using the Python 2/3 Compatible Source strategy, as used by Django, that enables the same code base to work without modification on both Python2 and Python3. 50647 1 sjolley.yp.pm 2015-04-30 14:38:11 +0000 This is the same bug as 2398 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2398 *** 51282 2 cristina-danielax.agurida 2015-05-27 09:38:22 +0000 Verified as duplicate.
