Details

Description:
i2c-tools has a dependency on python2. However it is a collection of perl scripts and binaries. Python is used for the bundled "smbus" module, but as far as I can tell nothing in Arch ever imports that. I suggest changing the dependencies to

depends=('perl')
optdepends=('read-edid: for decode-edid script'
'python2: for smbus module')
makedepends=('python2')

Additional info:
i2c-tools 3.1.1-1

Steps to reproduce:
file $(pacman -Qlq i2c-tools | grep 'bin..')
This task depends upon

Committed a fix in trunk, sources are down so hopefully the domain (lm-sensors.org) is up later.
