Exactctly. I did some more research: replacing python-all with a dummy package and then purging all python2-stuff does exactly no harm at all to TDE 14.1. I created the dummy package with equivs and this config file: Section: misc Priority: optional Standards-Version: 3.9.2 Package: python-all Version: 2.7.18-2 Provides: python-all:any (= 2.7.18-2) Description: dummy for python-all aka python2.7 Could somebody with more insight please check this?
