Package: python-dev-is-python3 (3.11.4-1)

[ Source: what-is-python  ]

symlinks /usr/bin/python-config to python3-config

Starting with the Debian 11 (bullseye) and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (focal) releases, all python packages use explicit python3 or python2 interpreter and do not use unversioned /usr/bin/python-config at all. Some third-party code is now predominantly python3 based, yet may use /usr/bin/python-config.

This is a convenience package which ships a symlink to point /usr/bin/python-config script at the current default python3. It may improve compatibility with other modern systems, whilst breaking some obsolete or 3rd-party software.

No packages may declare dependencies on this package.
