Please port to py3.
Only revdep: x11-apps/xauth.
Looks like cmdtest is maintainer needed, and has Python3 support in upstream repo, but never released, snapshotting will be required.
I've emailed the upstream maintainer and asked for a new tagged release.
Cool, thanks. Would any of you be interested in maintaining it?
I can take it upon myself unless there's someone who plan to do so, since it's dep of x11 package I feel obligated to have it maintained.
This is the response I received from the maintainer: >> On Sun, 2020-08-02 at 12:07 -0700, Matt Turner wrote: >> In Gentoo we're working on removing Python 2 from the distribution. >> cmdtest as Python 3 support, but it's not in any tagged release.

Sounds like your next stop is xauth upstream ;-).
