Hi Stein,

So, yes, Python2 support is still there upstream but they are working
on it to remove it ASAP (currently there is some other work going on
such as addition of dl-youtube dependency so pafy isn't anymore
standalone) but it will happen in near future IMHO.

I already removed (as you mentioned) on simple basis that at that
moment no other package depended on it, except mps-youtube which I
also maintain and *is* Python3 only now. Also Debian is doing
transition from Python2 to Python3 which was included in my choice to
remove Python2 support.

My personal opinion is that we shouldn't add anymore Python2 packages
to Debian archive but work actively towards Python3 (so adding
packages with no Python3 support is slowing down the process and also
can mean that it will simply get removed at some point in Debian
release cycle).

I would rather go contacting upstream of your package to add Python3
support so we avoid "return" of python-pafy (and don't trouble
ourselves with transition to it).

In last case scenario, I am opened to more debate and eventually
adding Python2 support but as I said, pafy will rather sooner then
later be only Python3 too.
