| ironhalik | Hello | 11:38 |
| ironhalik | I'm wondering - what's with Ubuntu migration between python2 and python3 | 11:39 |
| ironhalik | if I go with python3, will I have any serious problems developing for 12.04 and up? | 11:39 |
| DanChapman | Hi, i would just go with python3. python2.x packages are still shipped with ubuntu for older applications with dependencies on them but python3 is the future i believe | 11:42 |
| DanChapman | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Python/3 | 11:43 |
| ironhalik | Python is nice but it's quite messed up compared to Java. Just b/c of the migration thing | 11:44 |
| DanChapman | If you develop in 3 to start with you wont have no problems | 11:45 |
| DanChapman | The python 2.x packages will be around in the repo's for some time so even if you have depends, they will still be avilable | 11:46 |
| DanChapman | available. | 11:46 |
| ironhalik | there shouldn't be any compatibility issues with existing system stuff? I'm wondering about networking, notifyOSD, and GTK ofcourse | 11:46 |
| ironhalik | ah well, I guess I'll go with python 3.x. Python devs say it will be the default choice before 2015 :> | 11:48 |
| ironhalik | thank you for the help DanChapman | 11:48 |
| DanChapman | i presume thats due to 2.7 being no longer supported after 2015? Anyway no problem ironhalik | 11:52 |
| ironhalik | I think they'll still maintain 2.7, but they assume most of new code will be in python3.x | 11:53 |
