Hi, In some cases I've seen, particularly in the med or science team, switching some packages to Python 3 requires a significant effort.
For example, today I looked into removing Python 2 from python-cogent. Running sixer on all files lead to a huge log of problems to solve by hand. There's no upstream support for Python 3 on that one. For this kind of package, I see no way out except: - Upstream works on Python 3 support - Someone in Debian makes the effort But in both cases, it's going to take a very long time. Do we really want to get stuck on these packages for like forever, or would it feel ok to raise the severity to serious, so that the package gets auto-removed and then we can work on removing Python 2 from its dependencies? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
