CYGWIN CHANGES

Only python 3.8 and 3.9 are updated.

Python 2, 3.6 and 3.7 (in near future) are not anymore supported upstream.

Python 3.11 will be in the near future introduced and we will skip 3.10 .

https://devguide.python.org/versions/#versions

The main packages include postinstall script that
use "alternatives" to define for

   /usr/bin/python

   /usr/bin/python3
   /usr/bin/idle3
   /usr/bin/pydoc3

a default to the highest package available.

$ alternatives --display python
   python - status is auto.
  link currently points to /usr/bin/python3.9
/usr/bin/python2.7 - priority 27
/usr/bin/python3.6 - priority 36
/usr/bin/python3.7 - priority 37
/usr/bin/python3.8 - priority 38
/usr/bin/python3.9 - priority 39
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/python3.9.

Rationale:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/
In other systems as Debian
/usr/bin/python is discouraged.

DESCRIPTION
