Title:
Cannot import optparse or getopt with only python3.14-minimal
installed
Status in python3.14 package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
This is similar to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3.14/+bug/2127898
optparse in libpython3.13-minimal wraps the import of gettext in a
try/catch, but this seems to be missing from libpython3.14-minimal.
This causes an import error when importing optparse if gettext isn't
available. The same appears to be true for getopt.
