The 'gimp-python' binary package has no reverse dependencies (only gimp
suggests gimp-python).

There doesn't seem to be any python3 bindings (because of python3 not
binding gtk2 which is still used by gimp).

I'd suggest this issue could be fixed simply by dropping then python2
bindings (the gimp-python package).

Possibly python(3) bindings could later be added again once gimp is
ported to gtk3 (and bindings ported to gobject-introspections).

Andreas Henriksson
