demos: cppextensions Makefile: python may not be present in PATH on generic systems
The doc/demos/cppextensions/Makefile
file now call python
in a shell command. On generic Debian systems, python
does not exist, but python3
does and python2
might be inherited from old-stable Debian distributions. Debian does not recommend to install python
. I have no idea what is the policy on other systems regarding python
, python2
, and python3
. Does the python
in the Makefile meant to be either python2
or python3
? In other words, does graph-tool
support both python 2
and python 3
? If graph-tool no more support python 2
, I would suggest to call in the Makefile python3
instead. Note that python3
is actually in Debian a link to a python 3 dot something
. This looks as a very reasonable choice that we may find in most distributions and on most systems.
