No, since you would use it to compile the binary bootloader only. So, as long as you can tell waf to link the bootloader against (eg.) Python 2.0 development libraries, there is no problem. It would just be mildly annoying for a Python 2.0 user to install Python 2.3 just to build the bootloader, but it is obsvioulsy not a showstopper. -- Giovanni Bajo :: [email protected] Develer S.r.l. :: http://www.develer.com My Blog: http://giovanni.bajo.it Last post: Compile-time Function Execution in D -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
