Debian bullseye (-> Trisquel 11) removed all python 2 packages and those who
depend on them from the repo. These are the packages that are removed:
1. Mailman 2.1 (lists.gnu), Mailman 3 uses python 3 but Savane can't work with
Mailman 3 without a lot of changes in both the frontend and the backend, and
replacing lists.gnu is in FSF sysadmin's realm
2. ViewVC 1.2.y or before, but there is a 1.3.0-dev that uses python 3
This doesn't work for me:
3. libnss-mysql, it segfaults
Partially working or needed patches:
4. hgweb's and viewvc's wsgi or fcgi scripts, they depend on python-flup. Only
cgi scripts are working
5. loggerhead's wsgi script, I had to hardcode the repo's path in the script
6. sv_membersh's way to invoke "hg serve --stdio" will be aborted because of a
safety check (?). It needs to be invoked by a wrapper script "hg-ssh" that
comes with mercurial.
Probably there's more.
