Use python 3. Python 2 was partially, and poorly, abandoned for RHEL 8 and it's being phased out of RHEL 7 painfully and slowly. Take good look at the Fedora SRPM's if you wnt to backport to RHEL 8. It's tricky business. I used to publish the rpmforge RPMs for Subversion, and backporting got *paindul* due to various library dependencies which notably exceeded those of the OS.
