Description

This makes the instructions compatible with the recent switch to Python 3 (Nuitka) eopkg by default

Prevents the following error:

sudo eopkg bi --ignore-safety pspec.xml
Program terminated.
Building packages is not supported when eopkg is compiled with nuitka. Please use eopkg.py3 instead.

I've discovered that eopkg.py3 is not part of the default installation as it is in the python-eopkg subpackage, not in the main eopkg package. I think asking people to install that might be the only way to make this work, unless someone finds out how to properly fix getsolus/eopkg#49 instead of disabling it in the nuitka build (I took a look for half an hour or so yesterday but got nowhere)

Actually we can just make it use eopkg.py2 for this for now

Okay, this is good to go and can actually be merged at any time before the sync too.
