python_syntax is python2 only

This issue might be transformed into a related one: new Alpine versions seem to have deprecated python2, so it is not available anymore, see for example https://git.code.tecnalia.com/tecnalia_robotics/biemh_2022/cobots_ui/-/jobs/433367

We might drop the existing job, and switch into https://git.code.tecnalia.com/tecnalia_robotics/flexbotics/flexbotics_test/dummy_application/-/pipelines/75661

Yup, I was trying to figure out why some python checks failed and was just going to open an issue related to the phasing out of python2 package in alpine.

It does seem to be the case if you check the package index. The python2 package is there if you search the alpine 3.15 packages, but it's not there for alpine 3.16.

Ping @arkaitz.urquiza.

Does it make sense to temporarily specify image: alpine:3.15 in the python_syntax job? Or do you think an alternative job can be rolled out relatively easily?

Yes, that would be the best solution for the moment.
