Subject: [Qemu-devel] [RFC] Require Python 3 for building QEMU
Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2018 02:02:27 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181013050227.17022-1-ehabkost@redhat.com> (raw)

I'd like to do this in QEMU 3.1. I think it's time to drop
support for old systems that have only Python 2.
We still have a few scripts that are not required for building
QEMU that still work only with Python 2 (iotests being the most
relevant set). Requiring Python 3 for building QEMU won't
prevent people from using those scripts with Python 2 until they
are finally ported.
