+ == Ansible now uses Python3 by default
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The `ansible` package in Fedora is switching to use *Python 3* by default, instead of *Python 2*.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ You may need to adjust what python is used on the target machines you talk to from your Fedora control host.
|
| |
+ You can do this by following the instructions in link:++http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/python_3_support.html++[Ansible docs].
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ This change allows you to manage target machines that don't normally ship with `python2` by default easier as well as moving `ansible` in Fedora to the Python version used by upstream to develop new features and improvements.
|
| |
+ As `python2` subpackages in Fedora are retired, more and more development will move to the `python3` versions.
|
| |
+ This change aligns the Fedora `ansible` package with that reality.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ All new modules and all the core modules shipped with Fedora's `ansible` package have been tested with `python3`.
|
| |
+ Locally created modules or plugins, or 3rd party community plugins, may need some adjustment to work smoothly with `python3`.
