There seems to be some disagreement as to the best course of action, with some advocation for just porting any libpeas dependencies to Python 3. TBH I don't use these so I don't have a strong opinion or motivation, except that I want to reduce the overall dependence on Python 2 in Debian. We've already made this split in Ubuntu and haven't seen any reports of problems, so to me it's a low risk, high reward option, even if short-term (with the long term being a full Python 3 port). At this point I guess it's up to the Gnome team in Debian to decide how to proceed.
