#7835 — Telling dh_python3 to skip a .so file

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hi all,

In one of my packages (namely gnome-applets), I have a .so file that is not a
Python extension (but rather a generic plugin). However dh_python3 thinks that
it *is* a Python extension, adds an ABI tag to its name and then makes the
package depend on python3 (<< 3.5).

How can I tell dh_python3 to ignore that file? After adding --no-ext-rename it
does not rename it, but still considers it when calculating the dependencies
(and thus still adds the python3 (<< 3.5) thing). I also tries -X but that
didn't change anything.

Not running dh_python3 on that binary package is also not an option: that binary
package contains a Python script that needs its shebang changed.

Any ideas?

I don't see a single file in gnome-applets_3.18.1-1_amd64.deb that
justifies invoking dh_python3. Why do you need it? If you actually have
a script that needs shebang rewrite (and I somehow missed it), you can
use sed to do that.

Oops, there should be a file there, but looks like a new upstream release
introduced a new build-dependency for Python code so it is not built :/

I will fix it soon.

When that file is built, it needs dh_python3 to replace shebang and add
correct ${python3:Depends}. Of course I can do it manually, but my question
was about how to make dh_python3 ignore a particular .so file, and I am
still interested in that.

Ack, thanks!

there's --skip-private that will tell dh_python3 to not touch
/usr/lib/gnome-applets/ if you plan to ship this script in /usr/bin/,
if not, then:

override_dh_auto_install:
	dh_auto_install
	sed -i -e  '1s,/usr/bin/foo,/usr/bin/bar,' $CURDIR/debian/gnome-applets/usr/lib/gnome-applets/foo

not calling dh_python3 at all and add required interpreter to Depends by
hand would be my suggestion. There are no other options right now (and
I don't really plan to add them)
