Ken Giusti commented on PROTON-199:
-----------------------------------
I'm able to run the proton unit tests on Centos 5.9 (python 2.4.3) with the
following patch:
https://reviews.apache.org/r/9123/
which addresses some syntax changes and the alias of the 'bytes' type.
Centos 5.9 provides the necessary python UUID stuff via the python-uuid package
(I've got python-uuid-1.30-3.el5 installed).
> [Proton-c] Python binding requires python 2.6+
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PROTON-199
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-199
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: proton-c
> Affects Versions: 0.3
> Environment: python versions < 2.5
> Reporter: Ken Giusti
> Priority: Minor
>
> Python bindings make use of (at least two) python language features that
> require python versions newer than 2.5:
> - uuid
> - bytes
> In order to support older versions of the python language, these features
> would have to be removed, or a compatibility layer would need to be provided.
