I think there needs to be mention that plpythonu and plpython2u are
going away and there will only be plpython3u . Especially since in
current docs it says:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/plpython-python23.html
"The language named plpythonu implements PL/Python based on the default
Python language variant, which is currently Python 2. (This default is
independent of what any local Python installations might consider to be
their “default”, for example, what /usr/bin/python might be.) The
default will probably be changed to Python 3 in a distant future release
of PostgreSQL, depending on the progress of the migration to Python 3 in
the Python community."
This is going to catch people by surprise. A heads up in the release
announcement will mitigate that.
