Then we have quite some work ahead: samba-tool as such might be
compatible to both, but how do you find out from within samba-tool for
which python version our libraries have been compiled? Can you run
python2 samba-tool find the import does not work and retry with
python3 then? This might be a way, but I'm not enough of a python
wizard to say how this is to be done. If that is difficult, we can
only compile for what /usr/bin/python points at. Everything else just
leads to our bugzilla to blow up.
