I have some vague recollection of some distro thing where even though everything is building python 3 the distro was still stuck in py2 land. But I don't remember specifics and am clearly not the expert here, so... Assuming the nautilus distros we're targetting are good with py3 only (just el7, 18.04?) then let's go for it? Copying ceph-maintainers so all of our distro friends can raise any objections... sage > > > > -Greg > > > > > > > > > > > On Wed, Nov 21, 2018 at 9:09 AM Alfredo Deza <adeza@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > > > On Tue, Nov 20, 2018 at 8:50 PM Brad Hubbard <bhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > Hello all, > > > > > > > > > > At the moment we have two problems on Fedora 29, one involves the > > > > > installing of dependencies [1] and the other is a cmake error [2][3] > > > > > that revolves around Python2 not being linked to the same openssl > > > > > library version as was shipped with the OS.
