11/25/2019, 4:57 PMSo ossfuzz build is broken, because sometime recently osquery started requiring python 3.6 and up, which isn't in xenial by default. Is there a way to get 3.6 in xenial that doesn't involve "Just use this random person's ppa"? (Or is there a random person we might trust? Level of trust doesn't have to be super-high I don't think....)

11/25/2019, 5:11 PMBut I would trust the PPA's mentioned, since it's the accepted answer with lots of votes.

16.04 ended “standard support”. Full EoL is April 2024.

I wonder if it’s easy to move to python35

11/25/2019, 5:24 PMhttps://github.com/osquery/osquery/pull/6057 - I have no context about why 3.5 is excluded from the search list
Tom Ritter
11/25/2019, 5:24 PMBut I can tell you that before this patch, at least one configuration of osquery built fine with 3.5 🙂

Probably oversight. There’s a comment for python38 support too

11/25/2019, 5:27 PMYeah partially an oversight (thought 3.5 was already EOL) and because those are the python versions we have tested the various python scripts we have.
