==========

|

Adds a symlink to `/usr/local/bin/dib-python` which points at either a
|
||||
`python2` or `python3` executable as appropriate.

Adds a symlink to ``/usr/local/bin/dib-python`` which points at either a
|

``python2`` or ``python3`` executable as appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
In-chroot scripts should use this as their interpreter
|
||||
(`#!/usr/local/bin/dib-python`) to make scripts that are compatible
|
||||
with both `python2` and `python3`. We can not assume
|
||||
`/usr/bin/python` exists, as some platforms have started shipping with
|
||||
(``#!/usr/local/bin/dib-python``) to make scripts that are compatible
|
||||
with both ``python2`` and ``python3``. We can not assume
|
||||
``/usr/bin/python`` exists, as some platforms have started shipping with
|
||||
only Python 3.
|
||||
|
||||
`DIB_PYTHON` will be exported as the python interpreter. You should
|
||||
use this instead of `python script.py` (e.g. `${DIB_PYTHON}
|
||||
script.py`). Note you can also call `/usr/local/bin/dib-python
|
||||
script.py` but in some circumstances, such as creating a `virtualenv`,
|
||||
it can create somewhat confusing references to `dib-python` that
|
||||
``DIB_PYTHON`` will be exported as the python interpreter. You should
|
||||
use this instead of ``python script.py`` (e.g. ``${DIB_PYTHON}
|
||||
script.py``). Note you can also call ``/usr/local/bin/dib-python
|
||||
script.py`` but in some circumstances, such as creating a ``virtualenv``,
|
||||
it can create somewhat confusing references to ``dib-python`` that
|
||||
remain in the built image.

|
||||
This does not install a python if one does not exist, and instead fails.

This also exports a variable `DIB_PYTHON_VERSION` which will either be
|

This also exports a variable ``DIB_PYTHON_VERSION`` which will either be
|
||||
'2' or '3' depending on the python version which dib-python points to.

.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
The ``dib-python`` interpreter will be removed in ``cleanup.d``. It
|
||||
is only intended for build scripts.
