Great to hear.

1. What do you mean by this TODO comment in
scp2/source/ooo/common_brand.scp
[...]
//TODO: This actually belongs into a module of its own:
#if !defined DISABLE_PYUNO && !defined SYSTEM_PYTHON
[...]

This needs to be placed into a bit of historic perspective. For one, the various (optional) parts of a LO installation set are grouped into modules at the level of scp2 (and, depending on the format of installation set, you can select a subset of modules for installation; this works e.g. with Windows msi format and with Linux deb or rpm format, but not with Mac OS X dmg format, where you always have to install a complete LO). For another, the infamous three-layer stuff once separated branding-specific files into modules of their own, away from the branding-agnostic rest (that then could be reused across various branded variants of the original OpenOffice.org, like we had back at Sun with StarOffice, BrOffice, etc.). All the client-facing executables (soffice, unopkg, and also that python executable) were ending up in branding-specific modules. The dilemma now was that the original separation of files into modules along the dimension of features (e.g., a separate module for PyUNO, see scp2/soruce/python/module_python.scp) would have had to be doubled when introducing the new dimension of branding-specific vs. branding-agnostic. This lead to an increase in the overall number of packages, and in some cases, like that little python executable that would end up in a module of its own (feature: PyUno, three-layer: branding-specific), stuff was simply kept in a bigger module instead of properly splitting it out.

Now that three-layer is faint history, the best thing would be to clean this remnant up, moving the gid_Brand_File_Bin_Python entity from gid_Module_Root_Brand to gid_Module_Optional_Pyuno. If you like, you can try getting into that scp2 stuff yourself. Let me know if you need any help there.

Thank you for this detailed explanation.
Done, pushed a new change set to gerrit: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/179/ (Also i'm trying to follow a simple rule: do not migrate and refactor in one step, this one is really small to make an exception.)


The thing is
on unix:
python.sh is get copied to bin/pyuno/python in Package_python_shell.mk

on wnt:
native python executable wrapper is built in pyuno/Executable_python.mk
now and is delivered by default to bin/python.exe.
But then we have a collision with native python executable artifact
which get build in python module.
How can i force on gbuild land (RepositoryFixes.mk doesn't handle
executables, only libs so far)
to create a python.exe not into /bin, but to bin/pyuno/python.exe
(Windows isn't tested at all, though)

Good question.  Hopefully one of the gbuild wizards can step in?

building it now as bin/python_wrapper.exe and moving it with new CustomTarget_python_wrapper.mk target to
bin/pyuno/python.exe.

Regards
David
