Definitely not.  The entire notion that /usr/bin/python should point at python3 
anytime soon is nuts.  Do it when python2.7 is removed from the archive, not 
before. If you aren't going to do that switch, /usr/bin/python2 is meaningless 
other than as a workaround for people who care about Arch.  Since upstream now 
ships /usr/bin/python2 we should too (and we do for Jessie), but there's no 
good reason for us to be using it.
