From my experience, having python poiting to python3 in the PATH has some bad effect, and some patch have been posted some time ago to fix this issue: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/208803/ Also, I'm dubious about having python poiting to python3. Though there is nothing really stated, there is usually a consensus: "python" refers to the python-2 interpreter if it exists on the system, otherwise it refers to the python-3 one (if existing). What worries me is that, python (i.e. python 2.6 or 2.7) is currently a mandatory for Buildroot (see: http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#requirement-mandatory), and here, you are overriding it with python3 in the PATH inside Buildroot. I undersatnd that, when BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3_PY_ONLY is enabled, you want to build all modules using python3, but meanwhile some other build scripts may use 'python' referring to python2 and may badly failed because they will trigger python3... I may have missed something... so, enlighten me please. Regards,
