Installers beware! This package is a fiasco and the upstream Git repository basically has bunch of binary blobs in it that do strange things. I'm working on cleaning up the packaging some but the upstream behavior is egregious. Wash your /opt/depot_tools directory out with soap and bleach when done.

depot_tools is installed in /opt/depot_tools/. This directory is not in $PATH by default, so make sure to export PATH=/opt/depot_tools:$PATH before using it. Also, this directory has root permissions, so either use it as root, or if you want to use it as your currect user:

# groupadd depot_tools
# gpasswd -a $(whoami) depot_tools
# setfacl -m g:depot_tools:rwX /opt/depot_tools/

Then re-login as your current user or log your terminal in to the newly created group:

$ newgrp depot_tools

Beware that this should be installed in a directory ending with depot_tools to be able to install V8, they hardcoded that in the source (God knows why) https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/roll/build/download_gold_plugin.py Alternatively, create a symlink.

As a bit of a quick and dirty way of doing the python2 substitutions I used the following: for i in $(find -type f -not -path .git); do sed -i -e '1s/env python$/env python2/' -e 's/exec python /exec python2 /' -e 's/^python /python2 /' $i; done

@ausbin: Yeah, you are right: the fixed list of scripts in which to edit shebangs is quite annoying to maintain. In the end I have made a quick Python script which will edit them only in the first line, and only for scripts which already had a shebang beforehand. This is now run from the “prepare()” function. Also, notice how I had to leave still some fixing to “sed” because there are some shell scripts which do “exec python ...”, and those have to be changed to “exec python2 ...”. The latter are just a few, and quite unlikely to change, so I have opted for keeping a static list for those.

Hey, thanks a bunch for this package. It's saved me a lot of time. I think your hard-coded list of scripts is out of date, though. (it missed a few shebangs for me, at least). Instead of fixing the list every time the scripts shuffle around in git, maybe you could try something like the following: http://ix.io/jOw. It just replaces every instance of the wrong (python 3) shebang with the right (python 2) one. It ain't pretty -- it replaces *all* matching lines, not just the first -- but it works. As a side note to future readers: in general, I'd suggest against following stubb's suggestion of symlinking /usr/bin/python to /usr/bin/python2. Sure, it'll work, but you run the risk of breaking scripts such as youtube-dl that (correctly) expect /usr/bin/python to be Python 3. Simply replacing the bad shebangs in the package you're building avoids such issues and doesn't prevent you from installing Python 3 later.

@stubb, okay, I'll try that instead of the repo_fix script. Thanks!

stubb commented on 2014-12-01 23:46 (UTC)

@twelveeighty Looks like you missed that simply symlink trick https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python#Python_2

twelveeighty commented on 2014-12-01 16:12 (UTC)

Folks, I need some pointers. I'm using depot-tools to build mod_pagespeed. I keep getting the Python 3 vs. 2 problem (error code below), so I'm sure I'm missing something that has to be fixed with that repo_fix.sh script included in this package. But, I can't seem to find the folder that I need to run that script against. There's no ".repo" folder I can find? ________ running '/usr/bin/python2 src/build/gyp_chromium -Dchromium_revision=256281' in '/mnt/encrypted/data/twelveeighty/work/builds/mod_pagespeed' Updating projects from gyp files... File "../build/linux/detect_host_arch.py", line 31 print host_arch ^ SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print' gyp: Call to 'python ../build/linux/detect_host_arch.py' returned exit status 1.
