Any reason to not use "python3 setup.py" to prep for a policy allowing for relinking in the future? If the necessary change *might* be made, I'd rather make it now than later. Also, I haven't found any documented policy on renaming preexisting Python2 packages to python2-* when a Python 3 version of the package becomes available. A consistent policy would help packagers and users. -Aaron DeVore
