while in general I agree about shipping both Python2 and Python3, I think
this is useful for libraries, or for core applications. In the context of
general purpose tools, such as binwalk, the probability to have it installed
in a Python3 only environment might be trascurable.

However, that said, I had complains when I added pyqtgraph and the python-qt
dependencies, because somebody was running it on low resource systems.

So, if you can patch and share it with me I'll be happy to apply it!
(I'm really out of time, and such features might end up in the long term 
todolist)

thanks!

Gianfranco
