Bug 221029

Created attachment 418516 [details] Patch

Comment on attachment 418516 [details] Patch I agree this is the version of the patch that should land. But could you please also test if the newest version, 22.0.1, works? We can't actually upgrade to that now, because it doesn't support python2, but if it doesn't work then we need to investigate further and figure out what has gone wrong. P.S. The keyring package was upgraded for no reason, see https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220736#c12. So downgrading should be fine. But it will be upgraded again eventually....

IDK if > there's a tracking bug for that though. webkitpy already fully supports both python2 and python3, and both are tested on the EWS. The tracking bug for that was bug #184986. I was going to say: "If your runtime is based on freedesktop-sdk, it is probably already using python3, because python2 was removed in 19.08 and that was a pretty long time ago." But I see you are manually building python2 on top of freedesktop-sdk 20.08. So... if /usr/bin/python is still pointing to python2, that might indeed explain the behavior difference. Is there some strong reason that is still needed? It looks like all the python2 elements under Tools/buildstream/elements are only needed by sdk-platform.bst and that suggests they can probably just be dropped... assuming we don't notice any explosions when removed. Nothing in WebKit should still require python2.

(afaik webkitpy maintains python2 support only for Apple internal reasons. All our scripts and dependencies should already be fully-compatible with python3. In theory.)

I added Python2 in the SDK indeed, and then moved on with other things :) I suppose it could be removed now indeed.

Well maybe not, looks like bug #203701 might need fixed. (I guess it's been a very long time since I last attempted to run layout tests....)
