That's why the upgrades should be planned in advance before there's few time left. Python 2 will reach end of life in 2020 (no bugfix releases from that date). I guess that in 4 years Linux distros will "have to" (?) migrate to python3. We might find ourselves in a similar position as for guile1.8/guile2 I would not discourage Andrew. The task is difficult but it's worth the effort. I hope that he'll try to tackle it and get support by this community. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
