[aur-requests] [PRQ#35417] Deletion Request for requests-aws

[Konstantin Shalygin]

Hi,

I was remove py2 from PKGBUILD
We are use this package for [1] and [2] at least. If you knews the "new" library for replacement - I can try rewrite requests part of code


[1] https://github.com/blemmenes/radosgw_usage_exporter <https://github.com/blemmenes/radosgw_usage_exporter>
[2] https://github.com/cernceph/ceph-scripts/blob/master/tools/s3_quota_notice.py <https://github.com/cernceph/ceph-scripts/blob/master/tools/s3_quota_notice.py>

Thanks,
k
