Hello fellow developers,
There is quite an issue with python here that I want a wider audience
to be aware of because it did affect our users. Especially ~arch users
that were trying to avoid python-3. The intent of this email is purely
FYI.

(You can find a fix on the mentioned bug, if you are wondering)

-Jeremy
