For python issues, there is a package called python-is-python2

I've found this solves a lot of problems.
That package seems like a bad idea. If there is any software which still depends on python 2 you should probably find an alternative.
This is on the python web site:
"As of January 1st, 2020 no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will be made to Python 2, and Python 2 is no longer supported."
That includes security fixes, so any software relying on python 2 is requiring you to use a package which has not been maintained for over four and a half years.
Python 3 was released in December 2008. It's time to let python 2 go.
