If this is default, you need to force itstool to build against python3,
which won't work with current version in the book, and the latest
version is still broken.

You might need to set PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 for this and libxcb.
Not covered here:
gobject-introspection needs python as well, and it was previously pulled
from glib2. It can use python3, but needs env var similar to above.
for all python modules, wherever they're needed, I suppose they should
specify which version of python they need to be built against. I suppose
that's already done for most of the gnome packages, but not sure about
anything else.
