Python is now Python 3
A major Python update has just been moved from the testing repositories and will be available on a mirror near you. The default "python" package is now for the 3.x series while the 2.x series has been moved to a "python2" package, with python-2.7 having been scheduled to be the last major release in the python-2.x series.
Since /usr/bin/python will now point to the 3.x binary, any program requiring 2.x needs to point to /usr/bin/python2 instead. All our packages have been updated accordingly, but any remaining issues found can be reported to the bug tracker (not the forums or mailing lists).
AUR and third-party packages/projects using Python will likely need updating to reflect this move, as many programs are still incompatible with Python 3.
Thanks. Posted and the move is happening now!
And the move is done. I think everything that needed moving from [testing] (and nothing that did not...) has now been moved. The only package I am unsure of is libreoffice, but I leave that to Andy to decide. [community-testing] is empty so that is a good sign all packages have been moved! A big thanks to everyone who helped out on this massive rebuild. Allan
