I looked at the specfile %changelog, and realize now that you're the Fedora
maintainer for the Python 2 version of this package.

Given how minimal the changes needed to port this were, I still think that the
best approach here is to add a python3- subpackage to the existing
python-smbpasswd.spec (sending the upstream maintainer the patch).
