Description Jeremy Bicha 2017-08-10 04:49:02 UTC 
totem 3.25.90

The meson build checks for python and pylint but not python3 and pylint3.

build: Use idiomatic way of detecting Python3

And up the required Python version. We haven't supported running against
Python2 since 2013, so try to detect a Python3 newer than "3.0".

build: Check for alternative pylint names first

So that weirdly named Python3-enabled pylint are detected first,
before we fallback to "pylint".

And up the required Python version. We haven't supported running against
Python2 since 2013, so try to detect a Python3 newer than "3.0".

This also fixes running "python --version" (call had incorrect syntax)
and gather the version number (version appears on stdout not stderr).
