PyGObject for Python 3.6

[ysc]

Hi all,

I don't seem to find a way to get gobject for Python 3.6. The idea is to:

Code: Select all

import gi
from gi.repository import Gtk

The above works just fine with Python 2.7 and with Python 3.4 after installing python34-gobject.x86_64 0:3.22.0-4.el7. However, I'm tied to Python 3.6 and thus was wondering if you guys know of a way to get this working. Thanks.

Where did you get your copy of python 3.6 from ? If it was from IUS then perhaps they'd build the relevent gobject package to go with it.

I got it from IUS indeed, but couldn't find anything relevant on their website. Maybe it's worth asking them directly. Also, I tried with Anaconda's Python 3.6 but to no avail.

EDIT: alternatively, perhaps should I be looking for a Python 3 version of "gi"? I know Debian users have something called python3-gi, which supposedly solves my problem, but can't find anything similar either
