Summary
The remote host is missing an update for the 'python2' package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2020-e33acdea18 advisory.
Insight
Insight
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.
