Comment:
For interactive use and use in your scripts, you should definitely go with
asciidoctor. We keep asciidoc because many build systems of other
components still depend on it and its installed binaries and scripts.
As explained above, I've replaced asciidoc with the asciidoc-py3 fork
since Python 2.7 is unsupported since 2020-01-01, so continuing to use it
is not a suitable solution. If packages whose build systems use asciidoc
now trip over the version number, they should be fixed to no longer do
this (or not even check the asciidoc version at all).
Ideally, all dependent software would stop using asciidoc, but until such
time arises, we'll have to fix the failures as they happen.
