Are you sure ? If so, this is the problem, not the qt5webkit dependency on host-python. If you have a Python 3 enabled system, and qt5webkit is enabled, you should have the following situation: - target/usr/bin/python -> target/usr/bin/python3 - host/usr/bin/python -> host/usr/bin/python3 - host/usr/bin/python2 I.e, Python 3 is the "default" version, but Python 2 for the host is also available, if called explicitly using host/usr/bin/python2. So, I don't understand your original problem. Best regards, Thomas -- Thomas Petazzoni, CTO, Free Electrons Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering http://free-electrons.com
