rpm: missing Python dependency

JanneKataja-TomTom opened this issue · 1 comments

rpm scalyr-agent-2 does not list dependency for Python 2 or 3. I see that it works with both Python 2 and Python 3. rpm allows alternative Requires dependencies, for example either Python 2 OR Python 3. See:
https://rpm.org/user_doc/boolean_dependencies.html

Hi, @JanneKataja-TomTom Since Python 2 has reached its EOL one of our goals for the nearest future is to fully switch to Python 3, so this issue should be solved as well. For now, unfortunately, our packaging tool - fpm does not provide the ability to specify boolean dependencies for the rpm packages. This year we also plan on moving to distribution-specific releases which should be able to address this problem.
