I'm sorry, but this does not look like the way Python maintainers asked to deal with reverse dependencies: from [1] it is clear that you should not remove Python 2 support if you have reverse dependencies using it. The right way is to keep Python 2 and make the rev dep's bug affect #936227. [1] https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal People are using unstable. I agree with the principle that Python 2 applications should disappear as soon as possible, but breaking things randomly is not going to do any good. Please, if you see a mistake in my reasoning explain me, otherwise I will re-enable Python 2 support for 1.67.0 in Debian (I have no idea about policies in Ubuntu) until reverse dependencies are clean. Incidentally, it seems that ledger does not have any Python 2 removal related bug. I would file one.
