#50984 closed enhancement (duplicate)

gobject-introspection should support different versions of python

Port: gobject-introspection

Description

AFAIK gobject-introspection also runs on python 3.x. It would be really nice to have variants like many other packages have: eg. py27 py34

In my case gobject-introspection is the only reason macports installs python 2.7 along with some other stuff I'd really like to get rid off.

There's been some issues with this in the past but the latest stable release (not yet committed to MacPorts) has a number of fixes for python3 and I'm testing that now. At issue, currently, is the interaction of gobject-introspection with webkit2-gtk and whether both ports will be happy using python3 (and which versions thereof). Will update as I gain some confidence with the issue. Thanks for the nudge.

Make sure that you verify that the newer version of gobject-introspection doesn't bite us with https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152183 ... still not sure if that's a g-ir issue or a webkit issue.
