That would be great, I'm on Fedora 31. From [1] I think you could close 
the Python 2 and the EPEL 8 bug with the next release.

As a side note, I discovered the 3rd bug about restore-as-of - I haven't 
understood at first lecture, need to have a deeper look and perhaps 
create an upstream issue...

Yes, I've always had mixed feelings about upstream packages, they can 
only be generic, where most distributions actually need specific packages.

Thanks, Eric
