Title:
  Migrate dependency from py2 to py3, or moving py2 from Depends to
  Suggests in control file

Status in openvswitch package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu base are supposed to depends on Python3 but Python2, but
  openvswitch depends on it and core os must install it for no reason.
  So removing OVS dependency of python2 is strongly recommended.
