I get that this will probably not happen. What I would like to see is a list of the packages that will go away when upstream support for Python2 goes away. That would allow one to decide if any of those packages need to be locked for local use. No fun getting a surprise that some package that one did not expect had a python2 dependency and was removed.
Yep its against openSUSE's policy to ship insecure software, there have been a number of packages dropped from tumbleweed because they are old and security bugs weren't being fixed. "zypper rm python2" will give you the full list. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
