Ugh, this will be tough. An average system: # grep '#!.*python$' /usr/bin/*|wc 107 182 4485 # grep '#!.*python[23]' /usr/bin/*|wc 51 52 1936 You can start with fixing llvm which: * has "#!/usr/bin/env python" and "Requires Python 2.7" * thus makes the whole Xorg world depend on python 2 I don't think it makes any sense to do the switch now or in the near future. thanks, -- js suse labs
