Exactly what I was saying before in this thread as well. The amount of scripts with the #!/usr/bin/python3 shebang in the wild is staggering. I'm not saying that it's good practice but it must be considered. Maybe we could do a very gradual change, warning users in apt changes for several versions of python before pulling the rug maybe in Debian
I question the whole move as such. No gradual change can fix a broken move. Have a look at e.g. https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/interpreter.html#source-code-encoding That's just one example of official docs using #!/usr/bin/env python3 So please consider not changing the status quo at all, making life miserable for everyone using Python on Debian.
