17 Yes, but then it wants to rebuild a number of packages with python3_5
18 (re)enabled and when gdb is updated for python3_6, I'll have to rinse and
19 repeat. Two other packages with the same problem were obexftp and
20 libreoffice-bin, on different PCs. I don't mind waiting for a while until the
21 maintainers for these packages, or upstream, eventually catch up with
22 python3_6.
