Priority: P3
Bug ID: 119384
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Python update to version 2.7 or 2.6.8
Severity: normal
Issue Type: DEFECT
Classification: Code
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: PC
Status: CONFIRMED
Version: AOO340-dev
Component: www
Product: external prerequisites
AOO currently includes Python version 2.6.1. Most unix packages use the system
python which at this time means Python 2.7.x and in a future Python 3.
Python 3 breaks compatibility with Python 2, but in order to make transition
easier the python developers have done two things:
- Recent versions of Python 2.6 include some features from Python 3. Python 2.7
includes features from python 3.1.
- There are tools to convert python 2 code into python 3.
There is internal py code that can be converted to work on Python 2 and 3 but
there may also have py2 extensions that we may want to keep running so updating
internal Python to a 2.7.3 or 2.6.8 release is important.
