   Hallo Benny!   
      
    BP> -1, if not much intrest to drop python2 it will survice longer   
      
   It definetly looks that way, hence things like Firefox requiring you to have   
   both python2 and python3.  I have a choice to have either one or the other or   
   none at all.  However if none then I lose mc so for now I decided to go with   
   python2 and make alsa struff happy while I am at it.  With python3 I can keep   
   mc happy as it doesn't care which version since it is glib that requires it   
   and it is happy with either python2 or python3.  At this point in time if I am   
   forsced to python3 or both then I'd probably choose none and learn to live   
   without mc.  ;-)   
      
    BP> glib have not depending on python2 anymore on gentoo   
      
   Interesting that they made that choice.  Seems to me another reason I won't be   
   using gentoo.  ;-)   
      
    BP> maybe try python 3.7 ? :)   
      
   Why?  I am not planning to install Firefox and would still need python2 for   
   mesalib if I wanted to install xorg and apps that require mesalib.  I see no   
   point for python3 other than Firefox at this stage of the game.  Also I am   
   still happy with a text browser so this isn't worth anything to me personally.   
      
   Het leven is goed,
