It seems that the files [`bindings/python/setup_pypi.py`](https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/blob/eddbe1323a63a808d48c556606e96fea1d7c81bb/bindings/python/setup_pypi.py) and [`bindings/python/setup_standalone.py`](https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/blob/eddbe1323a63a808d48c556606e96fea1d7c81bb/bindings/python/setup_standalone.py) are obsolete and could be deleted to avoid confusion and maintenance. This is motivated by noticing that `bindings/python/setup_pypi.py` contains Python 2 only code

https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/blob/eddbe1323a63a808d48c556606e96fea1d7c81bb/bindings/python/setup_pypi.py#L41-L43

and so can't have been used for anything recently and has only had [4 changes](https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/commits/master/bindings/python/setup_pypi.py) since it was introduced in 2015 in e5b7572d99fd4aa194c3d856e52d2952efa23131. Is there any reason to keep this around?

`bindings/python/setup_standalone.py` has only has 1 minor change to it since @nsmith- introduced it in a8c7110fc0649e3eb5fce011eaaa8f590cabad54 in 2019. @nsmith- I'm not sure if you have a use case for this still, but I'm trying to introduce changes at the moment that modernize the Python installation, so I would hope these would be covered in them.
