[11:36] <savvas> is python-all (2.x) required for python3 builds for ubuntu saucy? I get an error "dh_auto_clean: failed to run pyversions" when I try to build a python3 program
[11:36] <savvas> https://launchpadlibrarian.net/151060488/buildlog.txt.gz
[11:37] <savvas> oh and hello :)
[11:37] <jtaylor> which debian/compat?
[11:37] <jtaylor> there are some python2 stuff run by default on low compats
[11:37] <jtaylor> < 9 probably
[11:38] <savvas> I've just changed it to 9.. hold a sec let me check
[11:38] <jtaylor> you may have to override the buildsystem
[11:38] <jtaylor> as python_distutils is wrong for python3 only
[11:38] <jtaylor> its autodetected from setup.py
[11:41] <savvas> ah you're right, it does use distutils: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ffmulticonverter/ffmulticonverter/master/view/head:/setup.py
[11:42] <jtaylor> there is no buildsystem support for python3 yet in < saucy
[11:42] <jtaylor> you may be able to do --buildsystem=none to prevent the python2 dependency
[11:42] <jtaylor> not sure, never built a py3 only package
[11:43] <savvas> there's no harm in using python-all in build-depends/depends though, right?
[11:43] <jtaylor> depends
[11:43] <jtaylor> if you don't override clean build and install it may try to run python2 setup.py which can fail
[11:44] <savvas> ok, I'll try adding it and see what happens with the created package. I'll also try the buildsystem=none option. Thank you very much :)
[18:42] <ScottK> jtaylor: It's generally better for this case for < saucy to just override dh_autobuild and loop over the python3 versions executing setup.py.
[20:28] <sauerbraten> I asked about udpating a package yesterday but can't remember who said they'd have a loo at it
[20:29] <sauerbraten> oh right, Noskcaj :)
[20:30] <Noskcaj> sauerbraten, I looked and it seems there is no one to maintain the package in debian. If you'd like to i'd be willing to help you set up, my internet is too slow to packaging it myself
[20:30] <sauerbraten> Noskcaj: sure, let's do that
[20:31] <Noskcaj> Do you have any experience with packaging?
[20:32] <sauerbraten> not really, no
[20:33] <Noskcaj> Can you go to the irc server irc.oftc.net? It's where debian is. There a proper teams there for teaching how to package, and the games team is there
[20:36] <sauerbraten> I'll do that. Do you know what channel I should ask in?
[20:36] <Noskcaj> #debian-mentors for help, #debian-games for sauerbraten.
[20:36] <Noskcaj> I'll be on both and i'll try and help
