Public bug reported:

Since I ran a do-release-upgrade last week from 15.10 to 16.04, starting
Vim now produces this warning I haven't seen before:

~/D/abc ❯❯❯ vim                                                                 
               develop ✭
You need vim compiled with Python 2.6, 2.7 or 3.2 and later support
for Powerline to work. Please consult the documentation for more
details.
Press ENTER or type command to continue

Then had a look at the included features of Vim:

I see, there is -python and -python3

But all news and documentation say the Vim in Xenial 16.04 comes with
Python3 enabled. I am confused? A bug?
