Upstream, this software supports Python 3. Please provide a Python 3 package for Fedora. According to the Python packaging guidelines [0], software must be packaged for Python 3 if upstream supports it. The guidelines give detailed information on how to do this, and even provide an example spec file [1]. The current best practice is to provide subpackages for the two Python versions (called "Common SRPM" in the guidelines). Alternatively, if nothing depends on your Python2 package, you can just switch to Python 3 entirely. It's ok to do this in Rawhide only, however, it would be greatly appreciated if you could push it to Fedora 24 as well. If anything is unclear, or if you need any kind of assistance with the porting, you can ask on IRC (#fedora-python on Freenode), or reply here. We'll be happy to help!

Hello Michal, Do you need any help adding Python 3 support to the RPM? If you need more instructions, a [guide] for porting Python-based RPMs is available. [guide] http://python-rpm-porting.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html
(In reply to Tomas Orsava from comment #0) > Upstream, this software supports Python 3. incorrect PyNUT module supports python3. I'm not aware of anything that uses it except nut-monitor itself, which is python2 only. Also it uses other modules that are not available in python3, for example it uses pygtk
Our tools are detecting a Python 2 dependency in the `nut-client` submodule. Are you sure upstream does not support Python 3 for that submodule? If not, I apologize for the mistaken bug filing. Thank you for your time!
I found that /usr/share/nut/nut-monitor/nut-monitor has a "#!/usr/bin/env python" shebang. This would cause the dependency on Python 2.
That's not the problem. It has > import gtk, gtk.glade, gobject which AFAIK can't be satisfied with python3
