[oi-dev] Removal of python 3.5 from OI

[Gary Mills]

I've attached a file of affected directories to this message.  It's a
list of directories with a Makefile that contain "runtime/python-35".
Note that it's not a list of packages.  All that it implies is that
the directory contains at least one package that requires python 3.5 .

Some Makefiles iterate over python versions to create "-35" packages,
along with other packages.  In that case, it's usually only necessary
to obsolete the "-35" package and to remove all references to python
3.5 .  Other Makefiles specify only a single python version.  If that
is so, the software can usually be upgraded to python 3.7 or 3.9 .

The trick is to obsolete packages in such a way as to avoid affecting
users.  Packages using python 3.5 that are not required by other
packages can be obsoleted at any time.  In the case of python 3.5
scripts, the easiest thing is to upgrade first, to a newer python
version, and work down the dependency tree from there.

Note that there has been no official announcement of the removal of
python 3.5 from OI yet.  However, python 2.7 has already mostly been
eliminated from OI.
