Hi, Unless your package has "async" or "await" as API, you should ... ...simply patch the bad code so that it doesn't include await / async where it should not. I did this extensively for OpenStack, and that's really not hard to do. The most annoying one was Glance, as one of its folder was named "async". It's annoying because a patch file cannot rename a folder with zero byte files (and in Python, there's many __init__.py files...). So, one has to rename the folder in debian/rules, and the rest of the patch is done as usual (except that it's done *before* the folder rename). I hope this helps, Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
Re: Allow installation on buster of a package not supporting 3.7 (async/await syntax error when generating bytecode)
Just tried but it's not working:
I wrote:
dir|3.7-|/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tensorflow/
But installing the package gives:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/py3compile", line 290, in
main()
File "/usr/bin/py3compile", line 266, in main
e_patterns = get_exclude_patterns()
File "/usr/bin/py3compile", line 93, in get_exclude_patterns
for type_, vers, dname, pattern in get_exclude_patterns_from_dir():
File "/usr/share/python3/debpython/__init__.py", line 22, in __call__
self.cache[key] = self.func(*args, **kwargs)
File "/usr/bin/py3compile", line 68, in get_exclude_patterns_from_dir
type_, vrange, dname, pattern = line.split('|', 3)
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 4, got 3)
I'm wondering if the "dir" type is actually supported: "re" type
contains the appropriate number of fields.
Regards, Adam.

It looks perfect, I made the modification but haven't been able to
test it yet.

You can use the bcep (bytecompile exception pattern) mechanism. The
documentation can be found in dh_python3(1)[1] and
/usr/share/doc/dh-python/README.PyDist, and you can find some examples in
codesearch.

Allow installation on buster of a package not supporting 3.7 (async/await syntax error when generating bytecode)
Hello list, I have a package working perfectly fine on Pyrhon 3.6 but using async/await methods so it cannot work on python 3.7 at the moment. During package compilation, I popd 3.7 from supported version returned by py3version and it allows me to build the package just fine: Problem: I cannot install it. Despite 3.7 was not "enabled" during build, when installing debian helpers try to compile bytecode for both 3.6 and 3.7 and fails. Is there any way to workaround that ? Thanks in advance, Adam. PS: I'm aware this is transitional and the package MUST support 3.7, but I kinda need a fast workaround, like right now.
