Thomas, All,

On 2021-02-16 22:45 +0100, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> scanpypi is python3 compatible. In addition, it executes the setup.py
> of Python modules to extract the relevant information. Since these are
> more and more commonly using python3 constructs, using "python" to run
> scanpypi causes problems on systems that have python2 installed as
> python, when trying to parse setup.py scripts with python3 constructs.
> 
> Fixes part of #13516.

I was about to apply it to master, but then I got a bit uneasy about
doing so. I was wondering whether it really is master material, or
whether it should go to next...

But in the end, our own python(2) package is now marked deprecated
already, so we do not expect people to actually add new python2-only
packages with scanpypi, and thus it does make sense that scanpypy is
switched to python3.

Applied to master, thanks.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
