I presume you can back it up with numbers how widely 3.7 and 3.6 are used by Arch users. All I can see is that both have less than 30 votes in AUR. Even if I take into account how irrelevant AUR votes are, I assume the problem is exaggerated. > Why are we packaging software that is used by far less people but we > can't package these Python interpreters which are being actively missed > by people? Our approach of "YOLO push random new packages to repos" is something I never agreed with, for the record. Unfortunately it's a kingdom with almost no rules. BP
