On Fedora ew have a python package which points to the 2.7 series and a
python3 package which points to the 3.3 series of python. I think we
should take this solution for EPEL because I think that python-2.7.x is
the standard python version which should not been overriden.

I think we need a conservative update handling to avoid incompatibilities
caused due an python update.
