Description Peter Simons 2012-10-19 21:42:24 UTC

The python interpreter on my system isn't located in /usr/bin, hence the following scripts won't work by default:

  # grep -R /usr/bin/python .
  ./test/rule-syntax-check.py:#!/usr/bin/python
  ./src/analyze/systemd-analyze:#!/usr/bin/python

Please use "/usr/bin/env python" instead. Thank you!

Keep in mind that systemd-analyze is python2.7 only nowadays.

% python3.2 /usr/bin/systemd-analyze plot
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/systemd-analyze", line 309, in <module>
    verb.get(args[0], unknown_verb)()
  File "/usr/bin/systemd-analyze", line 277, in plot
    surface.finish()
TypeError: must be str, not bytes
