You are currently lecturing the de facto maintainer of ledger. Matt
hasn't done an upload since 2012.

To expand on my previous (terse) remarks, when python3 support lands
upstream, I'll have a look at packaging it. When I say upstream already
knows, it's because you pointed me to a posting on upstream's mailing
