Hi Sunny,

EDK II only formally supports Python 3 now because Python 2 is EOL with no support.  So I’d suggest BaseTools users switch Python2 to Python3.

Thanks,
Bob

Sunny:
 If Robinson has no response, I suggest to revert this change first.

Robinson:
 Can you give your fix plan for this regression issue?

Thanks
Liming

主题: [edk2-devel] Python2.7 is not working with the EDK2 build system

Hi all,

I just ran into this build issue. After checking the edk2 emails, I saw some of you already ran into this build issue as well. At least, I saw two email threads below talking about this issue.
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/80068?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%252Fsticky,,python,20,2,0,85296733
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/79022?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2525252Fsticky,,DeprecationWarnings,20,2,0,84409128

The main purpose of this email is to have obvious email subject to get people’s attention, so that people won’t spend time to check this when running into this issue.
The solution at this moment is to use Python 3 instead (Use “export PYTHON_COMMAND=/usr/bin/python3” instead of “export PYTHON_COMMAND=/usr/bin/python”).

Hi Robinson,
Are you working on this now? If you’re busy with other things, how about we revert your patch first?

Hi Bob, Liming, and Yuwei,
What do you prefer to do at this moment? Wait for Robinson? or revert the change?

Best Regards,
Sunny
