Oh, so is GTK 2 the reason why we still have Python 2 as the default `python` command on Debian?

  I don't think it's the sole reason, but all these are changing :) https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal https://wiki.debian.org/Python/2Removal

  I don't think so, in Fedora already python == python3. I guess it's a matter of breaking & fixing many packages.

  No, those dependencies are unrelated but both inkscaoe and gimp switched to gtk3 and python3 on a major release cycle.
