To fix python issues with gcutil 1.13 and python 3.3
```
/usr/local/bin/python
#!/bin/bash
script=`readlink -f -- "$1"`
case "$script" in (/path/to/project1/*|/path/to/project2/*|/path/to/project3*)
exec python2 "$@"
;;
esac

script=`readlink -f -- "$2"`

This installation method was deprecated by Google.

They now have a set of bash scripts to install the google cloud sdk. It is not standard in any way, installs its own files on its own places, and intrusively adds itself to the user PATH, instead of using recognised places such as /usr/bin.

I have no idea how to PKBUILD it in a normal way. Google went several steps back with this to somewhere in the nineties. Disappointing.

Hi @alice and @jdunn,
Sorry for the late reply, I was on vacation.
I will look into this later today. It seems like they completely changed the installation procedure again to something even less modern..

1.12.0 is out :)

Also, since the official docs now point to installing the Google Cloud SDK instead with gcutil bundled, do you have any plans on making a PKGBUILD for that?
