Thanks Marco. Yep, I know about the python/python2/python3 naming PEP. I just got frustrated a little and went full bore on making my "python" (and all his friends) mean "python3" (😊).

If/when Cygwin gets to Python3 clean, I'll revert my alternatives.

For me, I think there's a PostgreSQL contrib package that has a dependency on Python2, which is why I can't remove it (I _think_). But I suspect you would already have it in your list.

I have played around with packaging on Cygwin and I found it difficult and inconsistent. Meaning, if it was like koji/rpm, I would find it easier to contribute/participate. I lost arm wrestling matches with cygport and packages that don't cygport... then I got deterred...

I would like to pitch in. Is there beginner stuff? There's a different ML for packaging folks isn't there? I have used Cygwin daily for many years but I have found myself trying out WSL2 (I never tried WSL1).

Thanks,

/allen
