Hello,
Python3 will be in the next major RHEL release.  I don't mean RHEL
7.6, but with numbers higher than 7.
There are many, many packages with something like the following

   if 0%{?fedora}
    %define with_python3 1
   %endif

If you have something like that, please change it to something like this.

   if 0%{?fedora} || 0%{?rhel} > 7
    %define with_python3 1
   %endif

I'll say it once again, but why can't we just have
%{python2_available} and %{python3_available} macros defined in the
base system?

Mostly because we can't change RHEL.

So, how about %{python2_missing} and %{python3_available}? Is that too ugly and inconsistent?
