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.
Yes, we are waiting for itstool-2.0.4.

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.
We now say py2 is required, but should probably make a full test of blfs
without py2 to see where it is really required. It is an invasive change.
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.
In many cases, we give instructions for both py2 and py3 for python
modules. We will have to update as information is discovered.
