Although I agree it can prove to be an inconvenience for some users,
most distributions provide a Python 3 package at this point.

The reasoning is that since these bindings are still in development
and won't be integrated into the master branch for some time, the
effort needed to develop and test them while targeting two versions of
Python is hard to justify.
