<PRE>2011/7/13 Michael scherer &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">misc at zarb.org</A>&gt;:
&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I would be in favor of treating python2 and python 3 as 2 differents languages.
</I>&gt;<i> The rational is that :
</I>&gt;<i> - we cannot garantee to have support for both
</I>&gt;<i> - &#160;we will likely have some module who would be updated only on
</I>&gt;<i> python 3 sooner or later
</I>&gt;<i> - we will need to do upgrade of package at different time, since both python2 and python3 are
</I>&gt;<i> released at different time.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> So rather than a complex scheme that will confuse packagers, just consider they
</I>&gt;<i> are separate, and use the almost same policy ( with s/python/python3/ )
</I>And how do you manage package that support both P2 and P3 ?
(same source)

&gt;<i> Regarding a review of all package, that sound like daunting task :/
</I>yes, but do you see another solution ?
we can have a priority list
