Only the plain python2 though, dnspython must be .. ah it is in ports now. Never tried this via package until now, however, it was not there when i set things up. Will try out soon. I have no opinion on any other python package, but it would be tremendous if at least the mailman related binaries were kept -- am i really the only one who uses the elder but still supported mailman that just works (which should be interpreted as a personal impression not as a statement on newer mailman or so) on Alpine? All the -- to me, at least -- important MLs seem to run with the old mailman that uses Python2. (In fact i cannot recall at the moment that i ever have subscribed to one which uses the new!)
