My first thoughts are:

* Removing a major feature from upstream is bad.

* However removing the feature is probably less evil then dropping the
  package.

* We probably should contact upstream about the problem, as it sounds
  like this means the upstream package is no longer Python3 compatable -
  if I understood correctly.
