older mozilla engine versions (pre- firefox-78) require Python 2 and
Python 3 simultaneously as part of the build process because they
couldn't convert it all at once. seamonkey is based on a little older

can't see the relevant part of the error, but it's probably higher up
in the log. the mozilla build output is complex, especially when
parallelized.
