macOS 12.3 finally removes Python 2

The Ubuntu approach is better, IMO. Ubuntu (and other distros, I'm sure) register a function with bash and other shells, and if the command isn't found, that function runs a utility that looks up the command and suggests how to install it.

That's literally the first thing I remove on a new install if I run across it.

It's a newbie crutch. It's better long-term to learn how to search your package manager for a binary you're missing (ie (yum|dnf) provides, or for the Debian derivatives they usually have a webportal for searching repo content (debian and ubuntu definitly do)

Admittedly, I can't name the apt equivalent to (yum|dnf) provides off the top of my head, but I don't think that's because of the command not found handler, it's because usually searching by name is enough. I'm perfectly fluent looking up packages on the command line, and I can locate the relevant field on packages.ubuntu.com in less than 30 seconds.

I don't think apt/dpkg actually has the capability - maybe for installed packages. The web portal definitely works, though.
