Description Ben Cotton 2020-01-27 16:46:01 UTC
This is a tracking bug for Change: Retire python26
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RetirePython26

The python26 package will be retired without replacement from Fedora 33. Python 2.6 has been End of Life since October 2013 and was kept around only to test software targeting RHEL/EPEL 6. The removal is aligned with EPEL 6 EOL.

We plan to do this shortly before branching, so we can still test with python26 before that.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2020-08-11 13:10:32 UTC
Branching F33 Change Tracker bugs.

Today is the code complete (testable) deadline. All bugs should be at least in MODIFIED state by now to indicate they are testable.
