Thank you for your report! With the python2 deprecation upstream
python2-html2text failing to build was addressed in commit
cc055349466d56e042c2e71c310142f91aaf78cf where python2-html2text is
pinned to 2019.8.11 with a note saying that it's the last version with
support for Python 2.

Hello !

  python2-html2text (@2020.1.16) fails to build with attached
log file.

  I'm not a dev an have no idea why the directive "attr:"
fails, but replacing it with the literal version allows setup
to succeed.

~~~
$ sed -i 's/attr: html2text.__version__/2020.1.16/' html2text-2020.1.16/setup.cfg 
~~~

Best regards and thanks,
Fulbert
