-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2018-c3a5b2029a 2018-09-29 23:56:16.096367 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python2 Product : Fedora 27 Version : 2.7.15 Release : 3.fc27 URL : https://www.python.org/ Summary : An interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language Description : Python 2 is an old version of the language that is incompatible with the 3.x line of releases. The language is mostly the same, but many details, especially how built-in objects like dictionaries and strings work, have changed considerably, and a lot of deprecated features have finally been removed in the 3.x line.
Note that documentation for Python 2 is provided in the python2-docs package.
This package provides the "python2" executable; most of the actual implementation is within the "python2-libs" package.
