Details

When python-secretstorage was changed to a split package, the python2-secretstorage built was included, also built from the same code.

The documentation says that versions >=3.x doesn't support Python 2 anymore[0].

And indeed, when you build the package, you get syntax errors in the Python 2 build with the 3.x code.

I'm not sure if this is viable as a split package, considering it needs separate code bases with separate versioning.

This should definitively not be a split package, and I'm confused why it is given we explicitly dropped it -- and all its reverse dependencies -- precisely due to dropping python2 support.
