Please notify archlinux maintainer, they probably don't know that would
be very useful.

> Here is a little bit of a build guide.  First a note about arch, since the release of python3, arch has renamed python2 to /usr/bin/python2.  This broke every package that relied on python2.  When we build a package on arch linux which uses python2 we have to specify the path explicitly.

Well, I'd say that archlinux should handle it, I don't think we can
really divine what each and every distro does :)

What problem is there?  We could probably fix it.
