Bug ID: 20962
Summary: Python 3 compatibility
Product: libabigail
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: default
Assignee: dodji at redhat dot com
Reporter: cqi at redhat dot com
CC: libabigail at sourceware dot org
Target Milestone: ---
Make fedabipkgdiff be compatible with Python 3. It looks el6 is still the
target platform to run libabigail tools. So, it's not time to move to Python 3
completely now.

el6 is still *A* target platform -- among other platforms -- to run libabigail
tools. It's not the only one. But it's an important one.
libabigail tools also need to run on Debian/Ubuntu platforms, etc. Let's not
forget it :-)
> So, it's not time to move to Python 3 completely now.
Right. If we can make the life of folks who live in a Python 3 world easier,
fine. But that should not prevent us from running on the older platforms that
our users care about.

I will gladly accept patches for that, yes. We'll need to work with the
eventual authors so the patch respects the overall Abigail design
especially regarding regression testing etc, though.

I have no precise idea. On the Enterprise Linux platforms, for
instance, I'd say we need to run on el6 and el7 at least. For the other
platforms, I guess we'd need to reach a consensus.

I see a cool thing. Will there be a "debabipkgdiff" that downloads deb packages
and do the ABI comparison? :)

How do we define the "older platforms"? Probably we could just ensure Python
2.6 is the minimal requirement, whatever the platform is, Debian/Ubuntu,
openSUSE, or Fedora/RHEL.
