Is python2 still required?

[e1mo]

On newer systems there is no python2.7 available anymore. Is it a hard requirement or just a leftover? I have done a bit of quick searching around and haven't found a definitive answer if mumble web or any of its dependencies require python2.7.

Has anyone tried running it with python3 on a modern system?

ansible-role-mumble/templates/mumble-web.service.j2

Line 6 in 93eb4d3

ExecStart=/usr/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python2-websockify \

ansible-role-mumble/tasks/mumble-web.yml

Line 24 in 93eb4d3

path: /usr/bin/python2.7

Hello e1mo, this effects only the mumble-web.service - which is disabled by default. We haven't tried it on python2.7-free systems yet, since the latest Debian (10 / Buster), still has Debian support.

You could create a branch, add the newest Ubuntu in .travis.yml and enable mumble-web in the defaults and change the /usr/bin/python2 to /usr/bin/python3

env:
  matrix:
    - MOLECULE_DISTRO: debian10
    - MOLECULE_DISTRO: debian9

Thanks, that sounds good. I'll give it a try in the next days.
