Hi
I maintain the omniORB / omniORBpy packages for Fedora. Given the
ongoing transition to python3, I've been asked to also provide python3
packages for omniORB.
My issue is the name clashing of the
/usr/bin/omniidl
/usr/bin/omniidlrun.py
scripts - all other python related files are installed underneath the
respetive python site prefixes and hence don't cause any conflicts.
I take it is a bad idea to rename omniidl to say omniidl-3 because it is
likely called by other scripts which expect omniidl to be named such. So
I wonder whether side-by-side installation is even possible? Resp. does
it actually matter which interpreter version is used to run
omniidl/omniidlrun.py?
Thanks
Sandro
