Description Martin Cihlář 2020-05-29 07:53:10 UTC
Gentoo's Ardour ebuild still has its PYTHON_COMPAT variable set to python2_7 exclusively. It has been confirmed on the Ardour forums that Python is used for its WAF build system only and the version they use is compatible with both Python 2 and 3.

I've tested the media-sound/ardour-6.0 ebuild with "PYTHON_COMPAT=( python{2_7,3_7} )" and only dev-lang/python:3.7 and 3.8 installed, I can confirm it builds and runs.

Reproducible: Always
