Hi:
I'd like to adopt Twisted for a current project I'm coding up. I'm on
CentOS 6.7 x86-64 using python v2.6 and the stock
python-twisted-8.2.0-3.1 package built for this release.
...
Is there anyway to get rid of this message? I realize I'm using an
older release of twisted but I can't upgrade to the latest without
incurring the cost of installing an python v2.7 or greater.
Hi,
Python 2.6 has been EOL for years and Twisted 8.2.0 is nearly seven years old. We can't really help with things that old (many, many issues have since been fixed, so remembering what's a bug that's been squashed and what's a platform bug is nearly impossible), but upgrading to Twisted 15.4 (the last release with Python 2.6 support, and only 4 or so months old) may help.
That maybe, but CentOS 6.7 is the latest 6.x release which ships with
8.2.x (somebody maintaining the RHEL 6.x series should update these
packages then).
I did a pip install and it said I needed Python 2.7 or higher. Let me
reevaluate if I can just update twisted.
