+Subject: [PATCH] Remove usage of six
+
+The last release of Python 2 was 2.7.18, released in April 2020. Python
+was officially end-of-life in 2020. I think it's time to stop catering
+for people using Python 2, so drop the usage of six.
+
+Closes #11.

Six is only needed to support Python 2 and 3 in a single script, but Py2 was EOL six years ago now. Patch out the need for six, and drop it as a dependency. Also remove a redundant FILESEXTRAPATHS from when there were python- and python3- versions of the recipe.
