  Nothing at all. package/Config.in already expresses the dependency on python 
|| python3. Look at any other python package, you'll only see a dependency on 
python or python3 if it doesn't work on the other one.

  Ideally you should also (build) test it with python3, but if you don't, the 
autobuilders will.

  Regards,
  Arnout
