Thread: pgadmin4 qmake selects python 3 by default?

On openSUSE Leap 42.1, using system with both python2- and
python3-config, qmake selects python3.

qmake
Project MESSAGE: Building for QT4...
Project MESSAGE: Building for Linux/Mac...
Project MESSAGE: Using /usr/bin/python3-config
Project MESSAGE: Python3 detected.

Is this a deliberate choice, determined by my system or random? I am
accustomed to seeing a default to python2, but if python3 works then not
a problem.
I still am not able to tell if the runtime situation is up due to
another error (Type str doesn't support the buffer API) which is still
under investigation.

It was, but on reflection I wonder if it's the best choice, given that
most of us are still using python2.

I'll switch it around.
