Hi,

I don't know if this is the relevant place, I'm new to this so any 
pointers if that is the case are appreciated.

I just recently upgraded my debian stretch installs and noticed 
vim-latexsuite no longer working correctly for citation insertion (as 
explained in 
http://vim-latex.sourceforge.net/documentation/latex-suite/ls-completion-ref.html). 
The error behaviour looks exactly like this: 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/26312/how-to-get-vim-latexs-cite-completion-to-work, 
where the error seems to stem from not having python available.

The difference between the version where this still worked (7.4.1829-1) 
and the current version (2:8.0.0022-1) i seemingly the switch from 
python to python3 support. echo has('python3') returns 1 correctly.

Is this a bug that should be filed against vim-latexsuite for not 
using/recognizing python3 support correctly? According to the docs 
linked above it should work with python 3.

Regards,
Haakon
