Python3
=======
Compatibility
-------------
Please, consider python3 >= 3.2 only.
Approach
--------
We maintain a Python 2 base and use 2to3 to generate Python 3 code.
2to3 is integrated into the distutils installation process and will be run as a
build step when invoked by the python3 interpreter::
NO_SETUPTOOLS=1 python3 setup.py install --no-compile
In order to run pylint locally, you have to install the dependencies::
easy_install-3.2 logilab-common
easy_install-3.2 astroid
Debian
------
For the Debian packaging, you can use the debian.py3k/ content against
the debian/ folder::
cp debian.py3k/* debian/
