Bug description:
  Since I ran a do-release-upgrade last week from 15.10 to 16.04,
  starting Vim now produces this warning I haven't seen before:

  ~/D/abc ❯❯❯ vim                                                                                develop ✭
  You need vim compiled with Python 2.6, 2.7 or 3.2 and later support
  for Powerline to work. Please consult the documentation for more
  details.
  Press ENTER or type command to continue

  Then had a look at the included features of Vim:

  I see, there is -python and -python3

  But all news and documentation say the Vim in Xenial 16.04 comes with
  Python3 enabled. I am confused? A bug?
