Arch Linux drops Python 2

If your Python 2.6 source was written before 2.7 was released, and still works fine on 3, then great. If you had to modify the source to work with 3, then *you* have clearly missed the point. It's not clear from what you say which is the case.

Unfortunately, I have a python utility that was written for (and runs fine on) 2.7. It crashes on - I guess 3.8? 3.9? I'm not sure which one was current when I tried it.

It's someone else's source, I don't "do" Python, so I can't ditch 2.7 until someone else fixes it for me ...

Cheers,
