Deprecated modules, functions and methods
=========================================
* The :mod:`packaging` module replaces the :mod:`distutils` module
* The ``unicode_internal`` codec has been deprecated because of the
:pep:`393`, use UTF-8, UTF-16 (``utf-16-le`` or ``utf-16-le``), or UTF-32
(``utf-32-le`` or ``utf-32-le``) instead.
* :meth:`ftplib.FTP.nlst` and :meth:`ftplib.FTP.dir`: use
:meth:`ftplib.FTP.mlsd` instead.
* :func:`platform.popen`: use the :mod:`subprocess` module. Check especially
the :ref:`subprocess-replacements` section.
* :issue:`13374`: The Windows bytes API has been deprecated in the :mod:`os`
module. Use Unicode filenames instead of bytes filenames to not depend on
the ANSI code page anymore and to support any filename.

anymore. It is now always 'linux', instead of 'linux2' or 'linux3' depending
on the Linux version used to build Python. Replace sys.platform == 'linux2'
with sys.platform.startswith('linux'), or directly sys.platform == 'linux' if
you don't need to support older Python versions.
