[Twisted-Python] Version support: a note

If we do decide to drop support for a widely-deployed version of Python, it is my firm belief that we should make setup.py fail loudly when used with those versions. If nothing else, it will make sure the Debian build will never work until I actually remove the build of non-supported versions. Which reminds me: please don't drop 2.1 support until sarge's freeze (not release -- but post-freeze, I'll be assured of my new uploads not getting into sarge, and I'd really like sarge's Twisted to support 2.1) -- Moshe Zadka -- http://moshez.org/ Buffy: I don't like you hanging out with someone that... short. Riley: Yeah, a lot of young people nowadays are experimenting with shortness. Agile Programming Language -- http://www.python.org/

Why? Doesn't sarge come with 2.2 as the default 'python', and pretty much every package compiled for it? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQE+qkzcvVGR4uSOE2wRAlyKAJ0ST932+rW/0aUaCBMTZoGRALEuvgCdF6Ni r2UIPo8TUPN25fHArwei+hI= =4UVg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

yes. default python for sarge is 2.2 (and there even was a discussion about switching to 2.3 if a stable release happens before freeze [i don't think it'll happen :)]) (the only reason for 2.1 in sarge is zope.) -- Federico Di Gregorio Debian GNU/Linux Developer fog@debian.org INIT.D Developer fog@initd.org Gli avvoltoi cinesi si nutrono di arte, ma possono anche mangiare i `domani'. -- Haruki Murakami
