Hi, While I agree that it'd be better to use /usr/bin/python3 or /usr/bin/env python3, mind that hyperkitty was initially designed to be both python2 and python3 compatible, hence it's hard to have a definitive solution. On the other hand, one should not rely on './manage.py' to manage a production environment. The appropriate way of handling a django instance is via django-admin and its Python3 alter-ego. We'll discuss regarding whether we try or not to merge your fix and have it in buster.
