I just read Andrey's mail at https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2018/06/msg00024.html . Please CC me if somebody replies. Maybe it would have been better to say that right now python gives $ python --version Python 2.7.15 To be more precise, I meant to know if 'Bullseye' i.e Debian 11 would have python 3.0 as default or not. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
