Only three and a half years later, I've removed the packages for the python2 interpreter: python{,2,27}-{,devel,test,tkinter} and idle{,2,27} python2 will continue to work where already installed, but it will not be possible to install it, or any packages which depend upon it. Work has been done to identify and update the packages which need rebuilding for python3, but not all effected packages have yet been updated. If those packages are important to you, please consider helping us bring them up to date [3].
