l/python-pygments-2.5.2-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  It seems like the pragmatic thing to do here is to revert this one to fix
  the python2 programs and modules that depend on it. We'll have to do a bit
  more research to determine what the best course of action is regarding
  python2 in general, though. Certainly we shouldn't be requiring python2
  for anything important moving forward, but even that will take some work.
  Plasma 5 as currently built has multiple dependencies on python2, for
  example.
n/bind-9.16.0-x86_64-4.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Drop python2 support and switch to python3.
