Packages should all be flagged with what versions of python work, and other than having a couple of versions of things installed there really isn't any harm in having this package using this version of python while a different one uses another. I'd just stick all those settings in a separate file. Once things settle down you should see what happens if you just remove all those settings entirely and go back to defaults. If you get a rat's nest of errors/etc then just put the file back. Eventually you might get to a point where it wants to rebuild everything but otherwise there are no errors - maybe a few weeks from now. Also, I do suggest following the news item and enabling both 3.6 and 3.7 for the time being to just reduce churn. You can remove that once things settle down. -- Rich
