I'm a bit surprised that you still care about such an old release as
Queens. Is this the release shipped with CentOS 7?

In any ways, thanks for letting me know, I have to admit I don't know
much about the RPM side of things.

In such case, I'm ok to keep the ${pyvers} variable for the CentOS case
for a bit longer then, but can we agree when we stop using it? Also IMO,
forcing it for Debian/Ubuntu doesn't make sense anymore.

Thanks everyone for participating in this thread,
Cheers,
