Thanks!

Unless you specifically need the Python 2 variants of bashlex and
shutilwhich, we can omit them. We are not adding Python 2 package
variants by default anymore.

I wonder about shutilwhich, which is a backport of a feature from
Python 3.3. We are using Python 3.7 so this should not be necessary,
right? Does compiledb require it specifically?

Can you send a revised patch series addressing this feedback? And when
you do, please make sure to add copyright lines for yourself to the
files you edit, and generate the patches using `git format-patch`, or
even `git send-email`, sending the mail to this bug report address.
