I think it should be OK to require python 2.6 as the lowest supported level to make things simpler. Best regards AndersHi, just for information the Linux development machine I have at work (Debian Lenny) is still packaging python 2.5 by default (unfortunately). It would be great if we could keep compatibility with older machines. Regards, Pascal. Hi Pascal,Lenny is oldstable and is not supported even by the Debian Project itself. Please upgrade to Squeeze. Cheers, Balint
Hi Balint, I would be happy to do so but the IT guys do not share my point of vue ;) For what it is worth, projects like Mercurial SCM (written mostly in Python) are still maintaining compatibility with Python 2.4. Regards, Pascal.
