rpm-python was converted to python3 (and generally blue-printed against
the rpm.org python module) at least 1 year ago afaik.

Meanwhile, no one has tried to compile/use rpm-python with python3. There’s 
surely some bugs.

I have tried this just now, and unfortunately I am getting compile errors when trying to build against Python 3 (this is an excerpt, the whole thing is longer):
