[ptxdist] [PATCH] python: move to staging

[Roland Hieber]

Use of Python 2 has been widely discouraged [citation needed], and
remaining users should start migrating to Python 3 [1]. Prepare for
Python 2 End-of-Life, which is in about three months from now [2].

I don't think that we're quite there yet. But it is something to keep in
mind.

Also, there are several more packages that select python.

[ptxdist] [PATCH v2] python: move to staging

[Roland Hieber]

Use of Python 2 has been widely discouraged for some years [citation
needed], and remaining users should start migrating to Python 3 [1].
Move Python 2 to staging to reflect that.

v2:
 - adapt removal date after final python v2.7.18 release
 - only move the python package for now. all reverse dependencies will
   depend on STAGING for now; we can find out later whether they build
   with python3 too.

I'd like to keep the around a little bit longer. We have alot of other
stuff that is dead or eol for much longer. Also:
1. removing the dependencies on system python2 are a lot more important
   because old ptxdist versions are often used for a long time. So if
   removing Python2 is your goal, then you should start there.
2. You need to move all python2 packages to staging as well and add
   dependencies to all suboptions. There must be no dependency conflicts
   when STAGING is disabled.

Regards,
Michael
