Hallo Benny!

 BP> -1, if not much intrest to drop python2 it will survice longer

It definetly looks that way, hence things like Firefox requiring you to have
both python2 and python3.  I have a choice to have either one or the other or
none at all.  However if none then I lose mc so for now I decided to go with
python2 and make alsa struff happy while I am at it.  With python3 I can keep
mc happy as it doesn't care which version since it is glib that requires it and
it is happy with either python2 or python3.  At this point in time if I am
forsced to python3 or both then I'd probably choose none and learn to live
without mc.  ;-)

 BP> glib have not depending on python2 anymore on gentoo

Interesting that they made that choice.  Seems to me another reason I won't be
using gentoo.  ;-)

 BP> maybe try python 3.7 ? :)

Why?  I am not planning to install Firefox and would still need python2 for
mesalib if I wanted to install xorg and apps that require mesalib.  I see no
point for python3 other than Firefox at this stage of the game.  Also I am
still happy with a text browser so this isn't worth anything to me personally.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
