i didn't say do nothing. I just said don't force it. If there is no
python (or python 3.x) on the system port's that can run on both should
use python 3.x by default. If there is python2.7 on the system that
should be used and not force the user to install python3.5 just to
install a package that would run just fine on the already installed
python2.7.
