Hi, Ubuntu 20.04 comes with python3. You can make python2 work but it involves jumping through some hoops.
Gump doesn't work with python 3. I've spent a couple of hours trying to fix this (patch on gump-vm2 in /home/markt) and I have reached the end of my (very) limited python skills. So, we have a choice. Python 2 or Python 3? Python 3 will need someone else to get Gump working on gump-vm2. Python 2 I can handle but I may take a few shortcuts and not put everything in Puppet on the basis we rebuild the server so infrequently that it is less effort to rebuild python 2 support manually than get it into Puppet. Or there is the other option - send Gump to the attic. Gump has been useful in the past in identifying issues other CI systems did not. Gump provides the Tomcat project with earlier sight of OpenSSL integration issues we don't get any other way. Gump going to the attic would be a loss to the Tomcat project but it would be a relatively small loss. If someone has the time and skills to get Gump onto Python 3 now then I'd support that. If not, my vote is for getting python2 running in the short term and hope someone can look at python3 support in the medium to long term. Thoughts?
