Alexander Traud commented on ASTERISK-27717:
--------------------------------------------

In Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, AC_PATH_PROG fails for 'python' because [python-minimal|https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/python-minimal] is not installed on default anymore. However, [python3|https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/python3] is. Consequently, a search for 'python3.6' would succeed.

> The script {{./configure}} assumes that Python 2.x has a tool named 'python' and is listed in the tool {{pkg-config}} as 'python'. However, on some platforms, no default Python package exists. Python 2.x and Python 3.x can be installed side by side and each gets its own path/name. For example in NetBSD, the package python27 installs
> * {{/usr/pkg/bin/python2.7}} (without a dash) and
> * {{/usr/pkg/lib/pkgconf/python-2.7.pc}}.
> Therefore, Python could not be used by Asterisk in NetBSD.
