# Notes from bootstraping Python 3.6
# ==================================
#
# New Python major version (3.X) break ABI and bytecode compatibility,
# so all packages depending on it need to be rebuilt.
#
# Due to a dependency cycle between Python, gdb, rpm, pip, setuptools, wheel,
# and other packages, in order to rebase Python 3 one has to build in the
# following order:
# and other packages, this isn't straightforward.
# Build in the following order:
#
# 1. At the same time:
# - gdb without python support (add %%global _without_python 1 on top of gdb's SPEC file)
# - gdb without python support (add %%global _without_python 1 on top of
# gdb's SPEC file)
# - python-rpm-generators with bootstrapping_python set to 1
# (this can be done also during step 2., but should be done before 3.)
# 2. python3 with rewheel set to 0
# 2. python3 without rewheel (use %%bcond_with rewheel instead of
# %%bcond_without)
# 3. At the same time:
# - gdb with python support (remove %%global _without_python 1 on top of gdb's SPEC file)
# - gdb with python support (remove %%global _without_python 1 on top of
# gdb's SPEC file)
# - python-rpm-generators with bootstrapping_python set to 0
# (this can be done at any later step without negative effects)
# 4. rpm

# Then the most important packages have to be built, in dependency order.
