Default Python version macros
For situations when an application (i.e. not a library) is compatible with both Python 3 and Python 2, the default Python version should be used. Depending on Fedora release number the default Python version might differ. For packagers' convenience and better spec readability, the following set of macros is provided:
| Macro | Fedora >= 22 | Fedora <= 21 |
|---|---|---|
| python_default_version | 3 | 2 |
| __python_default | %{__python3} | %{__python2} |
| python_default_sitelib | %{python3_sitelib} | %{python2_sitelib} |
| python_default_sitearch | %{python3_sitearch} | %{python2_sitearch} |
| python_default_devel | python3-devel | python2-devel |
| python_default_prefix | python3- | python- |
| python_default_prefix_only3 | python3- | (empty string) |
Example spec file using this approach:

# Unfortunately with weird package names, we have to do if/else
%if %{python_default_version} > 2

This package will use Python 3 (or 2) on Fedora releases where Python 3 (or 2) is the default.
