Metapackage "python" could be pointing to whatever version the maintainer
thinks is the best, obviously the version of the metapackage would correspond
with the version of package it points to. Update path is clearly defined and
user can do both "yum install python" and "yum update python" without
any
confusion.
Couldn't it be done even more easily by having only the python3
package "Provides: python"?
