30.0_p20190808-r3 still needs Python 2.7. Could this be cleaned up soonish, or is there a reason not to yet? This is blocking cleanup of dev-python/requests-cache.
Some users of mythtv use some of the mythplugins that have not been ported to python 3 in the latest version (31.0) of mythtv. They do work in 30.0_p20190808-r3 so those users remain with version 30.0_p20190808-r3 until the mythplugins, mythnetvision and mythzoneminder, are ported. mythplugins must remain in sync with mythtv version. When moving to a new version the database schema usually changes and you can not roll that back, restoring a backup of the old database is the the only way. Users and their families tend to use mythtv daily and do not like breakage/change caused by changing versions.
ping.
Ping. My suggestion would be to p.mask the old version along with other 30.* packages early with a long removal period, so that people know what's going on.
