I see... so some distros basically want to push towards Python 3 but are
too afraid to do it "properly" by also switching the target of "python".
;-)

I'd be totally fine with replacing "python" with "python3" on the
Inkscape-side if we targeted python3 only.

However the idea for Inkscape (at least the "LTS" branch 0.92.x) is to
support both, python2 and python3, and we can't offer that level of
compatibility by forcing calls to python3.

So yes, I think patching on your side is the way to go for now. If you
should find any scripts that are *not* compatible with python3 let us
know.
