[Freeipa-devel] Hashbang line in IPA scripts
Hi, We currently use this hashbang line in IPA scripts: #! /usr/bin/python -E IMHO this should be changed to point to Python 2 binary specifically: #! /usr/bin/python2 -E for the sake of distros, which symlink /usr/bin/python to Python 3 binary by default (Fedora 17?).

Honza Send a patch, but is python2 guaranteed to be always available (thinking RHEL for example) ? Simo. An option is to use distutils (setup.py) on all the scripts, as it automatically changes the hashbang line to point to the correct interpreter.
