Infra(OS): planet to Ubuntu 24.04 - Requires updating to Python3

[JacobCoffee]

What

Hi, I work for the PSF and am currently in the process of upgrading hosts from various OS levels to the latest Ubuntu LTS (24.04 - which comes pre-packaged with Python3.12.3)

In working with the backend and readying the VM, I realized that the app code demands python2.

Can someone assist in upgrading this? Is https://docs.python.org/3/library/2to3.html viable? I am available to help but have limited knowledge in py2 land.

Tasks

Preview Give feedback

1. Changeset tested against host set to default (jammy)
2. Changeset tested against host set to noble
3. VM upgraded
4. Data transferred
5. Shebangs updated python -> python3
6. config/sort-ini.py
7. code/*.py files

Thanks :)
