Transaction Check Error:

From python-2.7.15-3 onwards, we stopped shipping 2to3. 

I think you need to update the python-tools rpm.

this error occurs while running "yum update", so what do you mean with "update the python-tools" rpm. there is a python3-tools and a python-tools package. python-tools is installed and yum bails out trying to update to python3-tools.

Okay.

Just try to update "python-tools" first ., "yum update python-tools"

Then you can do "yum update".
