Security fix for CVE-2025-12084 in python3.6 updates for Fedora 44. Install via dnf for critical improvements.
Rebuilt for improvements of %python_wheel_inject_sbom in python-rpm- macros-3.14-11

Summary

Python is an accessible, high-level, dynamically typed, interpreted programming

language, designed with an emphasis on code readability.

It includes an extensive standard library, and has a vast ecosystem of

third-party libraries.

The python3.6 package provides the "python3" executable: the reference

interpreter for the Python language, version 3.

The majority of its standard library is provided in the python3.6-libs package,

which should be installed automatically along with python3.6.

The remaining parts of the Python standard library are broken out into the

python3.6-tkinter and python3.6-test packages, which may need to be installed

separately.

Documentation for Python is provided in the python3.6-docs package.

Packages containing additional libraries for Python are generally named with

the "python3.6-" prefix.
