Actually, it's not that Python doesn't work the way I expect, it's that distros have killed Python's portability promise and made C more attractive. Granted I'm able to code C well enough to pull this off, but having to do this is annoying.
Also, this is how things improve. Someone doesn't like the current state of affairs and changes it.
- rbanffy 16y agoAre you implying that Python is not portable between distros? I say that because I am much more familiar with Red Hat and Debian-based flavors and, on both environments, Python seems rather sane, if somehow crufty sometimes. What specific Python dependency did the move to C cure? What are the most common complains regarding libraries and versions? Perhaps listing them can help change whatever is wrong.
