Can qmidiroute do what you need?
File a bug report with the mididings maintainer? To "reinstate" python2 in
many distros means use an older version... go back to 18.04 or something
like that. or find a distro that still keeps older pythons.
Mididings is not the only software affected for sure. What is likely with
many of these projects, is that the author's own system can't run their
own software at which point they decide to update or abandon it.
Bitrot is a thing. Any software without maintainance will just one day not
be usable.
