The following configure log shows the problem: checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.6... python checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking for python version... 2.6 The host packaged python (2.6) is detected instead of the buildroot built one (2.7), because the python symlink is missing. In this case BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3=y so even with this patch the problem is not fixed. Your commit e1584b7d3350 (python: rework python symlinks installation) originally limited host python symlink creation, but I could not understand the reason for this from the commit log. baruch > Signed-off-by: Samuel Martin <s.martin49@gmail.com> > --- > package/python/python.mk | 6 +++--- > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/package/python/python.mk b/package/python/python.mk > index feff644..8a2ba65 100644 > --- a/package/python/python.mk > +++ b/package/python/python.mk > @@ -192,9 +192,9 @@ PYTHON_POST_INSTALL_STAGING_HOOKS += PYTHON_INSTALL_STAGING_PYTHON_CONFIG_SYMLIN > PYTHON_AUTORECONF = YES > > # Some packages may have build scripts requiring python2. > -# Only install the python symlink in the host tree if python2 is enabled > -# for the target. > -ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON),y) > +# Only install the python symlink in the host tree if python3 is not enabled > +# for the target, otherwise the default python program may be missing. > +ifneq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3),y) > define HOST_PYTHON_INSTALL_PYTHON_SYMLINK > ln -sf python2 $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/python > ln -sf python2-config $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/python-config > -- > 1.9.1 -- http://baruch.siach.name/blog/ ~. .~ Tk Open Systems =}------------------------------------------------ooO--U--Ooo------------{= - baruch at tkos.co.il - tel: +972.2.679.5364, http://www.tkos.co.il - ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Your > commit e1584b7d3350 (python: rework python symlinks installation) originally > limited host python symlink creation, but I could not understand the reason > for this from the commit log. Just to sum-up the python cases: 1) .config: BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON=n BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3=n output: host/usr/bin/python2 may exist host/usr/bin/python never exists without this patch 2) .config: BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON=y BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3=n output: host/usr/bin/python2 exists host/usr/bin/python -> python2 host/usr/bin/python3 never exists 3) .config: BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON=n BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3=y output: host/usr/bin/python3 exists host/usr/bin/python -> python3 host/usr/bin/python2 may exist In this build failure, the .config is in case #3. What happen is libevdev is built before python3 and host-python3 are built. But host/usr/bin/python2 is already built (because it is a dependency of libevdev). So, there is no python symlink yet installed in the host dir.; that's why the configure script fallback on the system python installation. I see 2 possible way to fix this: 1) add the following line to libevdev.mk: LIBEVDEV_CONF_ENV += ac_cv_path_PYTHON=$(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/python2 2) or, if python3 is correctly supported by libevdev, then change the host-python dependency to: LIBEVDEV_DEPENDENCIES += $(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_PYHTON3),host-python3,host-python) Tricky bug that, I think, we may see again :-/ > > baruch > Thanks a lot for sharing your investigations.

If it's the case, then we could implement solution (2) that you're proposing here. Thanks for the investigation!
