As some of you may know, Nona and I have been working through a list
of packages that depend on python-27 . The list was originally
published by Aurlien Larcher, with a view to the removal of python-27
from OI.
With the integration of PR #7942, there are only two remaining
packages:
developer/gnome/gnome-doc-utils
image/editor/gimp
In both of these cases, python-2 is deeply embedded in the product,
and the upstream developers have not completed the conversion to
python-3 . Unless the conversion happens very soon, we have little
choice but to obsolete these two packages, and revive them later when
the conversion is ready. If anyone has a better alternative, please
let us know.
