IANAHNBARHE -- RHL 8.0 is fully python-2, with a back compatability v 1 shim set. This has been working and freely available in their Raw Hide for 5 months for early adopters and back-porters. Red Hat maintains binary compatability across major releases. Its server management tools are heavily Python, and becoming more so. To have added mid-stream the python-2 series in the RHL 7.x series would have been quite disruptive to an existing installed base. -- Russ Herrold _______________________________________________ RPM-List mailing list http://lists.freshrpms.net/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
