I am confused about the standard way to write the shebang for a Python script.
I have a plain "python" link which depending on the system it could be either Python 2.x or Python 3.x and that is a problem since both are incompatible.
As a solution I write the version in my shebang and have something like:
#!/bin/env python3.2
But that seems foolish because it will prevent my script from running in any other 3.x release
I have noticed that some systems have python2 linked to the latest release. That helps, since that way I could write simple scripts, like "Hello World" which will not break with every release.
I have installed Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1 and 3.2 Using just "python" for the shebang does not make sense from a portability point of view. Using the exact version hinders maintainability. I do have a python2 link, but not not a python3
Is there any standard and/or PEP specifying how Python should be installed? And one that says that I deploy to must have a python3 and/or python2 linked to the latest release?
