What is the point of separate python-foo/python2-foo and python3-foo
packages? Will they be separate source packages or just binary
packages? Will we rename the python3-foo packages to python-foo once
python 2 is gone? After python 2 is gone will we add new packages
named python-foo and have old python3-bar packages in the archive at
the same time?
