Description Gal Zaidman 2018-10-21 09:17:13 UTC
With the need for python3.6 support for ovirt,
and considering the best practices for Python packaging,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python#Byte_compiling

we must package for python2/3 compatibility, require the correct python2/3 packages, and make code changes to fit python3 syntax

we won't ship ovirt-ga on python3

For Linux qemu-ga is a replacement on RHEL8 (or any other recent OS)
For Windows we'll keep using py2 for as long as it keeps works, gradually qemu-ga is also the intended replacement.

Acked. We have all functionality moved to qemu-ga now (besides SSO which will get dropped).
