offlineimap works only with python2 so the correct name of the interpreter has to be used here explicitly since `python` symlink points to python3 since https://git.slackware.nl/current/commit/?id=0cbf4c3859f23aa741e63823bc1e46377a9e4a9f Signed-off-by: Arkadiusz Drabczyk <[email protected]>
Needed for network/offlineimap. Slackware stock installation provides only version for python3. It was previously present as python/six but got removed since it was added to Slackware but now only python3 version is provided by the stock installation.

@Ponce will you solve the conflict or should I restore offlineimap myself? Or maybe you don't want to merge this PR? |
I added python2-six and reinstated offlineimap: as offlineimap is dead an offlineimap3 is maintained I would have preferred to have an offlineimap3 script. |
|
But why should it be removed? Here https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/2024-July/029557.html it says that the policy is to keep packages that have been abandoned by upstream as long as they build and work. |

yes that says that it should not be necessarily removed if it's not maintained anymore upstream. |
