What Linux distro are you running that Python 2.7 isn't the system
Python?
Python 2.7 was declared dead by
python.org more than a year ago now:
https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/
Any up-to-date Linux distro should have Python 3 as primary.
Exactctly.
I did some more research: replacing python-all with a dummy package and then purging all
python2-stuff does exactly no harm at all to TDE 14.1. I created the dummy package with
equivs and this config file:
Section: misc
Priority: optional
Standards-Version: 3.9.2
Package: python-all
Version: 2.7.18-2
Provides: python-all:any (= 2.7.18-2)
Description: dummy for python-all aka python2.7
Could somebody with more insight please check this?

(It was a big deal on Gentoo because Gentoo's
primary package manager
is written in Python. The transition produced enough developer drama
for a soap opera.)
