Ned Deily added the comment: Yep, r72866 does restore 2to3. And r72857, which removes the fullinstall target, also fixes the problem of unversioned "python" and "python-config" files being created in bin. Thanks! -- ___ Python tracker

Ned Deily added the comment: Reopening as RELEASE BLOCKER. r71936 does indeed install pydoc and idle with a 3 suffix. However, it also removed the 2to3 and smtp.py scripts previously installed by setup.py without providing any replacements for them, versioned or not. Section 25.4.1 of the 3

Ronald Oussoren added the comment: Couldn't we just rename them in the repository? IIRC the name with a '3' suffix would be the official name for these tools in Python 3.x, which would make it more natural to change the name in the repository as well. I don't know enough of svnmerge to know

Benjamin Peterson added the comment: I think the scripts should just get a "3" appended to them in installation. Unless distutils provides an easy way to do this, a patch should probably just rename the scripts before installing them. -- nosy: +tarek ___

New submission from Ned Deily : RELEASE BLOCKER r71400 and r71401 changed py3k setup.py to comment out the installation of the scripts for pydoc, idle, 2to5, and smtpd.py. This was in response to issue1590 noting that python3 should not overwrite python2 versions of the scripts. However, un
