[Bug 1882137] Re: python3-pastescript is ancient

[Corey Bryant]

There's really not much new in pastescript since 2.0.2. Nothing jumps
out as fixing this issue.

$ git_pretty 2.0.2..3.1.0
 - [8477297] Release 3.1.0
 - [627e9bb] Remove unittest2 dependency
 - [b7a7fb2] Drop hgignore, this is git repo
 - [2942a43] Prepare a 3.0.0 release
 - [b6e662b] Update README.rst
 - [25574f9] Update documentation to reflect current state
 - [15211c3] Enable working tests including travis-ci
 - [e13c2bd] post-release: set version to 2.0.3
 - [fd9c05c] Added tag 2.0.2 for changeset 21cbd862812d


@Walt, do you have more details on how to recreate the failure? What apps fail to start?
