Upstream, this software supports Python 3 [0]. Please provide a Python 3 package for Fedora. According to the Python packaging guidelines [1], 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 [2]. Since users aren't expected to import this tool from Python code, you can just switch to /usr/bin/python3. Alternatively, if you want or need to keep a Python 2 version, the current best practice is to provide subpackages -- this is called "Common SRPM" in the guidelines. It's OK to do this in Rawhide only, however, it would be greatly appreciated if you could push it to Fedora 25 as well. If you need more instructions, a guide for porting Python-based RPMs is available at [3]. 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!

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle. Changing version to '26'.
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/autojump/pull-request/2
This message is a reminder that Fedora 26 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 26. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '26'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 26 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
I merged the PR from Miro today; thanks Miro!
