By the way, we have dropped the Python2 python-commandnotfound version
now for Ubuntu 18.04.

Title:
  No python2 support for CommandNotFound anymore

Status in command-not-found package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Since 12.10, there is no Python2 library for accessing command-not-
  found functionality: if a program was using it, it will stop working
  after upgrade to Quantal. An example of such a project is Linaro Image
  Tools which relies on CommandNotFound to find packages missing
  commands are in.

  Solution is either to port code to Python3 (very hard) or simply to
  keep providing a python2 package of command-not-found library.

  A test case is simple:

    python -c "import CommandNotFound"

  I'll be linking a branch (based on lp:ubuntu/quantal/command-not-
  found) that introduces python-command-not-found package with Python2
  libraries: I am sure I've done many things wrong in it, and I'd be
  happy to get any comments on it.
