right.  i know what they've done.

first: they cannot spell the word "you're" ( the relative pronoun "your" is not
a substitute for the shortening of the phrase "you are")

second: they have assumed that /usr/bin/python is the absolute default link to
/usr/bin/python3.

if they intended to use python3 they should use "python3" as the command.

the virtualenv workaround most likely works because it adds a shell envvar
which maturin notices and picks up (it is most probably $PYTHON or perhaps
$PYTHON_PATH)

tried $PYTHON... nope.
tried $PYTHON_PATH...  nope

it'll be something like that.

i am not using virtualenv, it would be necessary to do a full total reinstall
of all python packages for libresoc under the same virtualenv, just for a
workaround of this one broken program (maturin).
