Python2 for building Intel FSP

Intel FSP can be build in the EDK2 containers. However the containers often have Python3 as default.

Most EDK2 containers have Python2 installed and contain script switch-to-python2 (/bin/switch-to-python2) which will let you easily switch to Python2 as default.

Tip

To see which python version are installed and which python version is used as default, look into our compose.yaml. Specifically, look into edk2 containers and their arguments PYTHON_PACKAGES (which python versions are installed) and PYTHON_VERSION (which python version is the default).
