python-is-python3

symlinks /usr/bin/python to python3

Image

Description

Starting with the Debian 11 (bullseye) and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (focal) releases, all python packages use explicit python3 or python2 interpreter and do not use unversioned /usr/bin/python at all. Some third-party code is now predominantly python3 based, yet may use /usr/bin/python.

This is a convenience package which ships a symlink to point the /usr/bin/python interpreter at the current default python3. It may improve compatibility with other modern systems, whilst breaking some obsolete or 3rd-party software.

No packages may declare dependencies on this package.
