would you provide the build power to do that? We're already struggling 
with people building stuff like kodi in their $HOME and not cleaning up 
the old, probably unused branches / test projects.
I see that very clearly as I'm the provider of ~80% of the ARM build 
power available to OBS ;-)
Let's see if this improves once newer, more powerful ARM boards are 
available, then I might upgrade the workers.

Only the amazon plugin AFAICT, which packman does not even provide. You 
could as well fix the amazon plugin to also work with python 3.6.

The other solution, if kodi really needs python > 3.6 would be to 
disable building it for anything older than Tumbleweed.
