Subversion definitely fails to compile it's python bindings with python-3 as /usr/bin/python, I tested that earlier. > general/genlib/glib2.xml Glib2 fails in it's gio tests if /usr/bin/python is python3, that can be worked around by neutering the gio/tests/Makefile or by removing the /usr/bin/python => python3 symlink > general/genlib/libxml2.xml With a lot of work it's possible to compile and install libxml2's python bindings into python3 but the effort was all in vain, they don't work as they use python 2 isms > xsoft/graphweb/firefox.xml > xsoft/other/thunderbird.xml The Thunderbird and Firefox configure scripts explicitly check that /usr/bin/python is python2. The only thing that I know of that uses python3 is pycairo, and even with that they produce a py2cairo that works with python2.
