A lot of packages have moved on and don't immedaitely support python 2.7 anymore. While it would be possible to patch things up in multiple corners, python 2.7 is EOL 2020-01-01 so it doesn't seem to be worth it anymore.

@FRidh I checked nixpkgs for usage of cherrypy with python2: I think we should check what of these packages can be moved to python3 by now, but it doesn't look like a too complex thing to solve. |

Yes

pkgs/development/python-modules/cherrypy/default.nix # python3 version (to be kept)

pkgs/tools/admin/salt/pepper/default.nix # no specific versioning
pkgs/tools/filesystems/ceph/default.nix # python3
I think we should check what of these packages can be moved to python3 by
now, but it doesn't look like a too complex thing to solve.

Motivation for this change
A lot of packages have moved on and don't immedaitely support python
2.7 anymore. While it would be possible to patch things up in multiple
corners, python 2.7 is EOL 2020-01-01 so it doesn't seem to be worth it
anymore.
