Hi Thomas,

one package using python2 is kodi. Buildroot currently provides version 
17.6, the current upstream release 18.1 is not packaged yet for buildroot 
but it still depends on python2. 

Upstream plans to move to python3 in their next 19.x release:
https://kodi.wiki/view/
General_information_about_migration_to_Python_3#The_Process

The python3-based version is already available for testing in a feature 
branch on github: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/compare/feature_python3
but no release date is known atm.

Regards, Bernd
