Well that hasn't worked 😞. I think what I need to do is create a Python 3.14 venv in |
System Python (3.9) is too old for Node.js' scripts. For the test machines, newer Python 3 was installed in tap2junit set up, but we do not install tap2junit on the release machines. Install Python 3.12 as a virtualenv as part of baselayout, but do not replace `/usr/bin/python3` so it continues to point to system Python 3.9 and not break dnf.

Updated to use a virtualenv. Picked Python 3.12 instead of 3.14 to match what the test machines are using to minimize variance. Retrying nightly again: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/12115/ |
