This dependency should have been propagated to the two Config.in
comments in that file, so that they don't appear if Python3 is not
used. I fixed that up and applied to master. Thanks!

Hmm that's interesting...
I agree it's needed but from a quick look I think we have packages
which don't do that (for example - txtorcon. If the toolchain doesn't
support C++, we will see the "comment" part under the python2 external
modules menu although python3 is needed).
Do I miss something or is it a real mistake?

Indeed, python-txtorcon/Config.in is also wrong. Imagine the user: he
has python2 enabled, and see "python-XYZ needs a toolchain w/ C++", so
he goes ahead and enables C++. Back to the Python menu.. the comment
has disappeared, but there is still no option to enable python-XYZ
because the option depends on Python 3.x. It would be very confusing,
so we definitely want to hide the Config.in comment with a "depends on
BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3" in this case.
Thanks!
