Hi all,
The removal of python2-* subpackages in staging is done and now it is included in TW. Would python-base, python-devel, etc be removed as well? Right now, removing python-base triggers removing a lot of latex packages and npm12.
Python interpreter setuptools and pip will stay around for a while still. We will be slowly phasing out stuff that really just pulls the py2 for some bindings that are dead/deprecated.
2) hard python2 dependency
Tough luck, unless upstream switched to python3 the package will probably depart from the Tumbleweed. mysql-workbench still needs a python 2 and there is no ETA for python 3 [1], so it would be removed, right? I could try to drop python at all, to have at least main functionality, anyway mysql-workbench python now is broken due to [2]. But I don't think I'll do it in several hours. So what is time window for this removing?
Well the package will be unresolvable. But it won't block TW releases so I would say 'near future' (weeks). HTH Tom
