Ohh, I missed it.
I know many patches are falling into a crack.

To respect the first submitter, and it solves
another file, I just picked up Andy's one.


I use Ubuntu, where /usr/bin/python is a symlink
to /usr/bin/python3.

I just booted Debian in a VM, and confirmed
/usr/bin/python no longer exists.

Thanks for the explanation.
