New issue 886 by [email protected]: runner variable in
/usr/local/bin/pybot leads to old version after major update for python and
rfw
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=886
Linux system, Ubuntu 11.04
Given the situation, that python2.6, rfw and third party libraries are
installed on a machine.
When i upgrade python to 2.7 and reinstall rfw and third party libs, pybot
still works with the third party libraries installed in python2.6 folder.
Reason is, that in /usr/local/bin/pybot still references to python2.6:
runner="/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/robot/runner.py"
So this is not changed by installation process of rfw with new python
version.
Maybe that's intended behaviour, but when i install a new version of third
party libraries this is done in 2.7 folder.
But executed testcases still work with old version installed under 2.6
which may (and will) confuse users.
