* scripts/lint/autoformat.sh: rename AUTOFORMAT_PARALLEL to PARALLEL,
  declare it at file start with default `true`; still env-overridable.
  Reword the worker comment so the literal `# shellcheck` token no
  longer appears at start-of-line and trips SC1072/SC1073.
* scripts/lint/galaxy.sh: drop the GALAXY_FATAL / GALAXY_NAMESPACE /
  GALAXY_PARALLEL env vars (over-engineered for a single repo). Failure
  is always fatal. NAMESPACE is an internal constant. Add the same
  PARALLEL env var (default `true`, env-overridable); falsy demotes the
  xargs fan-out to one worker.
* docs/contributing/environment/variables.md: collapse the four
  AUTOFORMAT_*/GALAXY_* rows into one `PARALLEL` row covering both
  consumers.
* docs/contributing/tools/make.md: refer to `PARALLEL=0` everywhere;
  add the lint-galaxy parallelism note.

Plus working-tree drift across roles/, group_vars/, inventories/, and
tasks/ that accumulated from the make-test setup phase regenerating
generated artefacts during recent test runs.

Python Development Utilities

Description

This Ansible role sets up a Python development environment on Arch Linux. It includes Python itself, the pip package manager, and builds on the general developer persona to support scripting, application development, data science, and more.

Learn more at the Python Official Site, the Arch Wiki - Python, and Wikipedia – Python.

Overview

This role provides the essential tooling for Python developers, enabling immediate use of python and pip from the command line. It supports both general-purpose scripting and advanced software engineering workflows.

Purpose

To simplify and standardize the provisioning of Python-ready environments for developers, students, data scientists, and automation engineers.

Features

  • Installs Python and Pip: Ensures the interpreter and package manager are available.
  • Prefers Python 3.11+: Installs Python 3.11+ where available and makes it the default via /usr/local/bin/python3 and /usr/local/bin/pip3.
  • Persona Integration: Extends dev-core with Python-specific tools.
  • Foundation for Further Stacks: Ideal starting point for Flask, Django, scientific computing, and automation.

Supported distro families in the installer script:

  • Arch Linux
  • Debian
  • Ubuntu
  • Fedora
  • CentOS / RHEL

Customization

Easily extend this role with:

  • Python virtualenv tools (python-virtualenv, pyenv)
  • Popular libraries (numpy, requests, flask)
  • Framework-specific roles (e.g., dev-python-django)
