Changing third, in this version we will find the update of its development tools. In this way, what is intended and in fact has been achieved, is to eliminate most of the packages related to Python 2, using Python 3.8 . And of course, you have to take into account that the old version has reached the end of its life. All in all and with it, the Fedora team has decided to include the legacy python27 package only for developers and users who still need this old version.

It is also important to know that Fedora targets a wide variety of user types, including the Fedora Astronomy Lab . Unsurprisingly, a good number of open source applications are included here for both amateur and professional astronomers. Well, now Fedora 32 is Com Neuro Lab for the Neuroscience Special Interest Group.

At this point, it is also worth noting the release of the Fedora Workstation version . As we have mentioned, it reaches version 3.36 of its GNOME desktop, which is the default. Therefore this translates into a good amount of changes and aesthetic improvements that come to the user interface . For example, a redesigned new system lock screen should be highlighted.
