Hi all, I strongly suggest to not go beyond 2.6 at the moment. All Ubuntu 12.04 machines and RHE6 machines have 2.6 as their default, and that matches with our previous assumptions also regarding gcc etc.
I agree with Steve that we can consider a move to 2.7, but it should be for stronger reasons that saving a few lines of code. I suggest we revert the change for now.

To reply, visit: http://reviews.gem5.org/r/2527/#review5529 ----------------------------------------------------------- Looks like importlib is only available in 2.7 (https://docs.python.org/2/library/importlib.html), and according to http://gem5.org/Dependencies we still support 2.5 and 2.6 as well. Is that accurate? In isolation, this seems reasonable, but it doesn't seem like enough of an advantage to justify bumping our minimum supported version. - Steve Reinhardt On Nov. 23, 2014, 3:03 a.m., Gabe Black wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
