Bug ID 16138
Summary cracklib has broken python detection, fails to build with python3 default
Product Codex
Version test grimoire
Hardware x86
OS Linux
Status NEW
Severity normal
Priority P2
Component security
Assignee sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
Reporter sobukus AT sourcemage.org
Classification Unclassified

I don't care about cracklib and have enough problems, so I'll only report: It's
broken with pyhton3 as default. It depends on some PYTHON, but there is no
mechanism to select the proper python. The configure script finds
/usr/bin/python and runs with it, failing:

checking for python... /usr/bin/python
checking for python version... 3.8
checking for python platform... linux
checking for python script directory... ${prefix}/lib/python3.8/site-packages
checking for python extension module directory...
${exec_prefix}/lib/python3.8/site-packages
checking python3.8/Python.h usability... no
checking python3.8/Python.h presence... no
checking for python3.8/Python.h... no
configure: error: python headers not found
 ! Problem Detected ! 

It misses -I/usr/include/python3.8 in this case (`python-config --includes`
would
tell you this). Maybe we want to get rid of python2 and fix this up for 3 only
(until 4 comes along).

PS: This is in security-libs … we're even missing a bugzilla component for
this.
