I have no horse in this race, but if we retire python-kitchen, someone needs to go though the things that now depend on it and remove that dependency. ;( I guess short term I could make it build (I got it just working mostly, but failing a test), but that doesn't help too long with python2 retirement coming soon. Might give us a little breathing room though? kevin
