Well the problem is that once you provide a build for EPEL, you shouldn't really do major updates [1], so it seems we would be stuck with whatever we build for 10+ years. I don't like that very much. We could probably do python3.4, python3.5 etc, but that'd probably require some modifications to dependency generators, etc... I'm not going to stay in anyones way to do this, but I won't do it myself. Slavek. [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/GuidelinesAndPolicies#A_major_version_update
