Re:Python 2 Removed from Debian by bravetraveler on Tuesday January 03, 2023 @01:36PM (#34235758)
I apologize for being so... combative, at first.

It was very knee-jerk to the interpretation that I had: "distance has been kept from Python and yet it's been a problem"

There hasn't been that much distance, truth be told. You did the same care for Python as you did the libraries, but it cost too much.

We're in complete agreement on dependency/manager aspects of Python -- my main point is, that's the core of it, I guess.

Everyone goes through this, it's awful and annoying, and my original post is a poor response to the presentation of that

The Python 2 vs 3 thing is settled, upgrade to a recent LTS and it's done... until a random relic utility comes around. Then obviously discard it
