It was reported by Miao Yan that the kconfig-related Python scripts are not working on Python 2.4.
Do we have any consensus in terms of Python version requirement?
This series avoids using "with ... as ..." and "except ... as ..." statements. But "with ... as ..." is used everywhere in buildman, which means buildman requires at least Python 2.6.
It is true we hope tools can work on broad range of versions, but it also means we have more restrictions when writing Python scripts.
I have no idea which version we should expect at least. Your comments are welcome.
Since it's reasonably easy to do for Kconfig it seems worth doing. For buildman I'm less sure, since it has been around for a year with no complaints. I supposse people can install a back-ported python 2.6?
Let's see what Tom thinks.
