What about just removing all but the python27 and python34 variants? Won't this produce the unusual variant htcondor +python25 +python27? Normally the different python variants conflict with each other.

If we just remove the obsolete variants, users won’t be migrated to the correct replacement variant — they’ll just end up with the default. Someone with @8.2.3_0+python31 installed would get “upgraded” to @8.2.3_1+python27, which is not what we want.

The standard method is to make the retired variant a stub that requires the replacement variant. After giving users a year or so to upgrade to the replacement, the retired variant can be removed altogether.
