Always use Python 3+ #418

Closed ximion closed 4 years ago

ximion commented 4 years ago

Hi! We are currently working on removing Python 2 from Debian, and all other Linux distributions are working on similar efforts. While it's likely that at some point Debian will provide a "python" binary pointing to the latest Python version, for now "python" still means Py2 and that executable will likely be gone soon (hopefully in time for the next Debian release).

This patch makes Sambamba use python3 explicitly wherever possible. I don't know much about Guix, so the Guix packages line may need to be adjusted differently (please have a look at that).

Cheers, Matthias

Note Guix already uses Python3 by default. So python means python3
