All major distributions have completed their switch to Python 3 or ship it already. This is Canonical's stance: > All Ubuntu/Canonical driven development should be targeting Python 3 right now, and all new code should be Python 3-only. Regardless, nowadays many people deploy Python applications as stand-alone bundles. We're happily running Python 3.5 on CentOS 6 and it took like ten minutes to deploy (pyenv!). This lets us use a rock-solid base system with an up-to-date application stack, which makes our old school admins happy.
