Yeah. Perhaps you can install a newer version of Python in a different directory, and change plucker to point to it instead? > IMHO, the one offending line of python should be removed and > replaced by something acceptable to the older versions of > python thus making plucker available to a larger user base. Older versions of python had other bugs which I seem to remember were non-trivial to work around. However, I can't find a good way of searching the archive, so I can't pull up exact messages, and it could just be a typo. And just to put things in perspective, you're trying to use current software on top of a base that's more than 4 years old. I'm asking you to upgrade your base to something that's only 3 years old. I'll say this: If you wrote a patch that got it working on your installation, the developers would probably be more than happy to accept it. (Looking at it a little more, why is that class getting compiled anyways? I take it all back. Can someone who knows a little more about how Python gets installed jump in at this point with an explanation of why JIUImageParser.py is getting compiled when a "make install" happens in the PyPlucker directory, and whether it would be better to exclude it somehow, or fix it so that it's 1.5.2 compliant?)
