If it would be just about scripts, it should be possible to make it depends on any python3 version, but there are also a bunch of python libs: /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/grub/ExtLinuxConf.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/grub/GrubConf.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/grub/LiloConf.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/grub/__init__.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/pygrub-0.7.egg-info/PKG-INFO /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/pygrub-0.7.egg-info/dependency_links.txt /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/pygrub-0.7.egg-info/top_level.txt /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen-3.0.egg-info/PKG-INFO /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen-3.0.egg-info/dependency_links.txt /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen-3.0.egg-info/top_level.txt /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/__init__.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/lowlevel/__init__.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/lowlevel/xc.cpython-313-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/lowlevel/xs.cpython-313-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/__init__.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/legacy.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/libxc.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/libxl.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/public.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/tests.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/verify.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/migration/xl.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xen/util.py /usr/lib/xen-4.20/lib/python/xenfsimage.cpython-313-x86_64-linux-gnu.so Some of those might be used by other software. > I would suggest creating xen-utils-X.YY-python to split the Python > scripts out of the main xen-utils-X.YY package. That might help, if such xen-utils-X.YY-python would not be installed (or at least would not be needed during upgrade).

TBH, it's a good idea to get rid of PyGRUB anyway, for so many reasons... -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab
