I am trying to upgrade the python from version 2.7 to 3.6 in my openwrt project. I changed the prereq-build.mk folder accordingly. But, facing the build dependency error. Should i take care of anything else other than the following changes?

Am i missing something? Or should i add any other changes to upgrade?
Thanks in advance!
