Hi Fred,
There are definitely systems with python3 and no python. Eg, Debian 12 for
example.
What specifically is currently shebanged to python3 and maybe needs to be
changed?
I'm referring to waf. It's easily worked around, though technically not
having a 'python' command is a bug, since code that works with both Python
2 and Python 3 is supposed to use the more generic 'python' in the shebang
line. The absence of Python 2 doesn't change that.
