pyversions - print python version information

pyversions [-h] [-v] [<options>]

pyversions prints information about installed, supported python runtimes, the default runtime, and parses the information of the PythonVersion fields in the package control file.

• -d, --default
      Show the default python version.
• -s, --supported
      Show the supported python versions.
• -r, --requested [<version string>|<control file>]
      Reads the value of the

XS-Python-Version field in the source section of a control file and shows all matching python versions. The parameter is interpreted as a version string, if it is not the name of a file. If the XS-Python-Version field is missing, get the version information from debian/pyversions. Without any parameter, it will fall back to list the supported Python versions after checking debian/control and debian/pyversions.

• -i, --installed
      Show the installed supported python versions.
• -v, --version
      Limit the output to the version numbers of the python versions.
• -h, --help
      Print a help text.
