Hi,
So I'm running some builds for the openvpn3-linux project on Fedora Rawhide
... And we have this little line in configure.ac:
AM_PATH_PYTHON([3.5],, [:])
When ./configure runs, it reports:
checking for python3 version... 3.1
As a colleague said, mathematically this is correct. But that doesn't really
help. Who/what is truncating Python 3.10 to 3.1? And how can that be fixed?
Is someone already looking into this?
Is the configure script regenerated during build? Old consifure scripts tend to
do this.
No, the tarball is pre-generated - on an Ubuntu 20.04 box, iirc.
This was fixed e.g. in automake:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1889732
But depending on how is the configure script created, might require fix in the
project itself.
Thanks! This was the pointer I needed and didn't find myself. I'll dig
into this.
I suggest to grep the configure script for 'sys.version' and see what it does
with that value (e.g. sys.version[:3] is usually the problem).
Yupp, the configure script does contain sys.version[:3].
Thanks for quick and good feedback! I'll probably just add a re-run of
autoreconf before %configure in the .spec file to circumvent this for
now until we get automake upgraded.
