That's nonsense.
what is? py3k is nothing more than the completion and/or significant advancement of several items that began in the 2.x tree; this is not new information.
It's correct that Arch is an advanced user distribution but you can't expect everyone to workaround each py application. Not everyone that use Arch are developers.
the thread seems to be more focused on _developers_, and my response reflects this sentiment.
i wouldn't expect any user to fix <insert> application, even myself. what i would expect however, is that they can figure out how to run it under python2.

C Anthony, That does seem to be where some of us are stuck... I can change the #!/usr/bin/python to #!/usr/bin/python2 no sweat, but then when the apps throw further module errors, that is where I get stuck. For example in /usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py, running the script with python2 as the executable results in the following error: 01:32 nirvana:/home/backup/rpms> sudo ./data/updt-sign-repo.sh openSUSE_11.0/ sqlite metadata tables found --> updating Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 29, in <module> import createrepo ImportError: No module named createrepo So for some reason the change has caused python2 to lose all its modules and I know not how to make the find them again :( -- David C.
