No, the python2 and python3 stacks are packaged to be installed independently, so you don't are forced to install python2 *and* python3. The warnings you are seeing are not useful. You can avoid them by looking at the new package tracker at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/<pkg-source>. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
