The problem with that is, whilst Samba 4.10.x will work with python2,
Samba 4.11.0 (when it is released in about 6 months time) wont. At that
point, Samba will require python3, so you either need to fix it now or
use another distro. I say this because RHEL has already said that there
will never be distro Samba packages that will be able to provision as a
DC.
