Binary package “python-is-python2” in ubuntu focal
symlinks /usr/bin/python to the DEPRECATED python2
In Ubuntu, all python packages use explicit python3 or python2
interpreter and do not use unversioned /usr/bin/python at all. Some
third-party code may still be python2 based, yet may use
/usr/bin/python.
.
This is a convenience package which ships a symlink to point
/usr/bin/python interpreter at the current default python2. It may
improve compatibility with obsolete 3rd-party software, whilst
breaking some modern software.
.
This package will be installed upon upgrades to Ubuntu 20.04, if
DEPRECATED python2 was installed.
.
python2 is DEPRECATED and will not be provided in the future Ubuntu
release. It is recommended to remove python2 and this package after
ensuring that only python3 is in use.
.
No packages may declare dependencies on this package.
