Any package that links to libpython2.6.so, or has files pointing at 
/usr/bin/python or /usr/bin/env python needs fixed.

something like  (untested...)

for pkg in ....; do
   readelf -d $(pacman -Qql $pkg) 2>/dev/null | grep libpython2.6
   grep "usr/bin/python" $(pacman -Qql $pkg) | grep -v python2
   grep "usr/bin/env python" $(pacman -Qql $pkg) | grep -v python2
done
