-------------------------------------
Summary: Fedora 28 python3-only test issues
Key: DISPATCH-1098
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1098
Project: Qpid Dispatch
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Tests
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Reporter: Chuck Rolke
Building a Fedora 28, python-3-only (no python 2), proton and dispatch leads to
some test issues.
* `which python` is empty
* `which unit2` is empty
h4. Define python
CMake finds python OK and builds proton and dispatch with the correct python
version. But the tests don't work. _python_ appears to be a python 2 construct.
In a python 3 system the executable is installed as python3. Python can be
defined with the alternatives command
{{alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 1}}
h4. Define unit2
The self test runner in dispatch expects an executable named _unit2_. _Unit2_
is a python 2 executable and in python 3 the equivalent program is named
_unit2-3_. The dispatch build scheme should always use _unit2_ and thiis can be
accomplished for python 3 with:
{{alternatives --install /usr/bin/unit2 unit2 /usr/bin/unit2-3 1}}
h4. Proposal
Dispatch self test should use naked _python_ and _unit2_ commands. An check in
the dispatch build could disable tests and warn about them being disabled
similar to how a missing unittest2 is handled. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-919
