Spec URL: https://github.com/fedora-python/python2-spec/blob/py2rename/python.spec Diff from master branch: https://github.com/fedora-python/python2-spec/compare/py2rename SRPM URL: https://cstratak.fedorapeople.org/python2-2.7.12-9.fc26.src.rpm Fedora Account System Username: cstratak With Python 2 reaching end of life at 2020 and also having by default in Fedora the Python 3 version of the language it only makes sense to explicitly reflect in the name of the package, the respective major version. Also in the future, there is a high possibility that python will refer only to python3. Thus I would like to rename python to python2. The package still virtually provide the python name. All the changes in the SPEC file are in the posted github link. The change is intended only for rawhide. This can be tested by using a rawhide machine and enabling my copr repo [0] where I have a build with the renamed python: dnf copr enable cstratak/Python2 Then by invoking "dnf update" or "dnf update python" the python2 package will be installed, replacing the python package with no conflicts.

Posting raw links for Fedora Review to work. Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fedora-python/python2-spec/py2rename/python.spec SRPM URL: https://cstratak.fedorapeople.org/python2-2.7.12-9.fc26.src.rpm
You need to rename the specfile as well: - Spec file name must match the spec package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec. Note: python.spec should be python2.spec See: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Spec_file_name
Renamed the specfile to python2.spec. Also removed the provides for python-abi (as only python(abi) is required by other packages). Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fedora-python/python2-spec/py2rename/python2.spec SRPM URL: https://cstratak.fedorapeople.org/python2-2.7.12-9.fc26.src.rpm
Also another addition. Implemented PEP 394[0], at this commit [1] so now all the binaries are provided in the form of bin2 and bin2.7 [0] https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/ [1] https://github.com/fedora-python/python2-spec/commit/9e09f0f095c684e3bddfb6ec1ab4e437fc9f467a
Review exception granted: https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/660#comment:2 One thing: Please change source URL to use https (geppetto, 17:11:52) After you do that or any necessary changes as well, post again Spec and SRPM URL and I will double check the new obsoletes/provides.

Nothing requires python-abi.
