System configuration for different keyboard options on a per-physical keyboard basis

Does Guix provide security support for Python2? For how long?

Hi. I use Guix on a foreign distro---Debian buster (current stable). I want to upgrade Debian to bullseye (current testing), but bullseye does not provide security support for Python 2. I still use Python 2 for OfflineIMAP. There is a Python 3 port of OfflineIMAP, but it was done very recently
