The no-py2 patch[1] in the salsa repository breaks the build.

I'm not doing that.

I think I did not explain well what was my problem. So I'll try to rephrase.

1) I drafted a patch to fix #941432 (see above)
2) I tried to build uwsgi using the latest salsa code (master branch) with it.
   I found out that the current code does not build.
3) I tried to fix this failure to build related to py2 removal but I'm
   currently stuck with the errors described above. debian/rules needs
   fixing. I need to find time to investigate further.

Thanks,

Alex
