Subject: bug#44239: [PATCH] Python double-digit version detection broken
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2020 14:00:43 +0100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi,

we have encountered an issue[1] with the python double-digit version
detection.

The used `sys.version[:3]` used in automake strips digits from the python
version. For example '3.10' is detected as '3.1'.

To fix this issue, `sys.version[:3]` is changed to `sys.version_info[:2]`
in the attached patch.

Version: 1.16.2
How to reproduce: Use automake with python 3.10 (or any double-digit
version)

More details can be found in the bugzilla below if needed.
