I think the correct solution here will be to build the “official” Python 
bindings in the re2 source distribution, which are actively maintained and 
which also provide a somewhat-compatible “import re2,” but are distributed on 
PyPI as google-re2 rather than fb-re2.

As the new maintainer of the re2 package in Fedora, I can do this at any time, 
but because the two packages would conflict, python-fb-re2 would need to be 
retired. I’ve been trying to get the consent of the python-fb-re2 maintainer, 
but so far there has been no response.

More details and supporting links are in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2260410.
