No, of course I don't plan on writing new code that checks sys.platform == 'linux2'. That's ridiculous. I plan to use *already written* applications on Python<2.7.3 binaries that have already been built (and thus were built on a 2.x kernel and report linux2), on Python>=2.7.3 which will be fixed to continue reporting linux2, and on Python<2.7.3 which have had the same fix backported to them by distros, since Python upstream won't do it for earlier branches. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12326> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
