== Summary ==
The version 2.0.x of [https://www.sphinx-doc.org/ Sphinx], popular
Python documentation generator and framework, is expected to be
[https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/5950 released in early
2019]. It
[https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes.html#incompatible-changes
drops support for Python 2]. As part of
[[FinalizingFedoraSwitchtoPython3|Finalizing Fedora's Switch to Python
3]], we update {{package|python-sphinx}} to 2.0.x and we drop
{{package|python2-sphinx}} and related packages from
[[Releases/31|Fedora 31]] and further.
I fail to understand the correlation between sphinx 2.0 and dropping
python 2 packages.
Sphinx 2.0 does not support Python 2.
We could make it so that we only update Sphinx on python 3, but leave the old
version on Python 2, however that kicking a dead horse, so we decided to drop
python2-sphinx at once.
We already have python3-sphinx in f29, so python2-sphinx could be
dropped in f30, and this change could simply be about a major sphinx
update.
python2-sphinx could be dropped in f30, however there is still a great amount of
dependent packages, this requires coordination and hence we decided to do it as
a change for Fedora 31, considered it too late for Fedora 30.
