The first of the big changes for this bloody cycle is underway internally, i.e.
the move from Python2.6 to Python2.7 for OmniOS-internal users of Python.
Those users are currently:
pkg(5)
traditional installer media (not kayak)
As of now, the pkg5 test suite is mostly passing with Python2.7, and bloody
users know that Python2.7 is AVAILABLE in the main "omnios" publisher repo.
The installer still needs work, but I'm curious how many bloody users out there
would be comfortable with having (for now) older install media, but when "pkg
update" occurs, moving entirely to Python2.7? The possible answers are:
* We want both: Basically, don't jump to Python2.7 until all components are
ready.
* We can cope: Basically, make the jump for pkg5, but for now, traditional
install media would be frozen, until the Python2.7 jump has been completed.
Appreciate your feedback, and I have one more longer-term question coming later
today or tomorrow.
Thanks!
Dan
