[Python-modules-team] Bug#936742: ipykernel: Python2 removal in sid/bullseye

[Boyuan Yang]

X-Debbugs-CC: gordon at chronitis.net jpuydt at debian.org

Dear ipykernel-py2 maintainers,

I see that there are no reverse dependencies and reverse build-
dependencies of ipykernel-py2 now.  Is it okay that we have ipykernel-
py2 removed from Debian?  This makes another step towards complete
python2 removal.

If there is no objections, I will submit a removal request 7 days later
(on Mar. 9, 2020).

Thanks,
Boyuan Yang
