Summary : Azure CLI
Description :
A great cloud needs great tools; we're excited to introduce Azure CLI,
our next generation multi-platform command line experience for Azure.
The /usr/bin/az command contains this:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib64/az/lib/python2.7/site-packages python2.7 -sm azure.cli "$@"
This should be changed to use Python 3.6.
There are some extensions to the azure-cli which are using Python 3 specific features that
do not work with Python 2. This is causing the azure cli to fail on Python 2.7.
