Two years later, I'd like to re-propose this patch that moves nmbug to python3. I have read what PEP 394 says (thanks for the pointer, Trevor!) but in practice (a) i do not see debian pointing /usr/bin/python to python3 any time in the near future, (b) python2 is officially EOL, and (c) i don't have a "python" binary in my $PATH at all any more on the machines where i do most of my development work. Can we please just be done with requiring people who actively develop notmuch to keep python 2 installed, or to point some other element named python maintained in their path ? --dkg On Thu 2018-02-08 23:32:11 -0500, Daniel Kahn Gillmor wrote: > nmbug and notmuch-report are developer tools.
