#10663 — Call for testing: Sphinx with Python 3 scripts by default

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

Hi!

Sphinx 1.7.5-4 in experimental now uses update-alternatives for managing its
scripts (sphinx-build, sphinx-autogen, etc), and Python 3 is now the preferred
version.

This means that if you have both python-sphinx and python3-sphinx installed,
the scripts will use Python 3 by default.

Please try the package from experimental and test your packages with it.
Some packages, especially those that do not support Python 3, may start
failing to build, when some other dependency pulls python3-sphinx.

To explicitly request the Python 2 or Python 3 of sphinx, you can use
“python2 -m sphinx” and “python3 -m sphinx” instead of sphinx-build.
