Actually in RHEL 8 you have no default python and you can choose between
2.7 or 3.6
https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2019/05/07/what-no-python-in-red-hat-e...
But this is short term support, unlike the system python (python 3.6) which
will be supported
for many years.
But probably it makes sense to combine shift to RHEL 8 in oVirt with python
3 for longer term support
It may be possible to make oVirt work on RHEL 8 using python 2.7, but we
are working on
the long term solution.
