Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We use some python-based code living in WMCore in the bash script we use to execute cmsRun. We want to decouple cmsRun from WMCore and this script that lives in WMCore, would be executed using the CMSSW python version
Describe the solution you'd like
We don't use this in production, but we should make sure CRAB is not using it either so we can deprecate its use. Otherwise, we could likely re-implement this script in full-bash, so it doesn't depend on any python version.
Note: This is where CRAB seems to use it.

Additional context
Although this is sort of related to python2/3 migration, it does not affect production but CRAB, as we don't call this part of the code in production, so we can deal with this later on
