Hi,

sorry for warming up this old commit but I would like to ask whether it 
is possible at all to allow python2 and python3 together on the target?

The topic was discussed on the python mailinglist (https://
mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2011-March/600724.html) and it did 
not mention any problems.

I need python2 for Kodi, afaics[1] there are no current plans to support 
python3.

For a new function[2] I would like to add to my buildroot-based system I 
need python3 on the target as well.

Regards, Bernd
