Hi, I’ve got a problem with Unreal Engine. I’m using Unreal version 4.17.2-1 on Arch Linux. I’m trying to package a game for HTML5, and it does not work. In Arch Linux, the python command runs python 3. My error is:
UATHelper: Packaging (HTML5): UnrealBuildTool: File “/usr/lib/emscripten/tools/ctor_evaller.py”, line 250
UATHelper: Packaging (HTML5): UnrealBuildTool: except Exception, e:

except Exception, e: is deprecated in python 3.
My question is: How do I edit the build script so that it uses the python2 command?
