That's incorrect. RHEL and CentOS support Python 3, as python3. It may not be installed by default, but installing it is easy: yum install python3 ought to work, although it won't give you the latest 3.x. You can also install from community repos: https://janikarhunen.fi/how-to-install-python-3-6-1-on-centos-7.html or install from source. OracleLinux, I had no idea that was even a thing until now so I won't comment on that. -- Steve -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
