From SCons 2.3.1 release notes: -- SUPPORT FOR PYTHON VERSIONS BEFORE 2.7 IS NOW DEPRECATED
***IMPORTANT***: This release is the last version of SCons to support Python versions older than 2.7. This release will warn if you are running on Python 2.6 or older; future releases will probably not work at all, as we are moving toward supporting Python 3. Use --warn=no-python-version to suppress the warning if needed. Looks like the docs and the code should also be updated to check for this. -Bill On July 17, 2014 at 2:54:26 PM, William Blevins ([email protected]) wrote: Scons 2.3.0 was compatible with 2.4. Scons 2.3.1+ required 2.6 breaking the version claimed by all documentation.

With an intent to not break 2.6 if it could be done without pain. So website and docs should be changed. -Bill On Thu, Jul 17, 2014 at 12:06 PM, Dirk Bächle <[email protected]> wrote: Hi there, a bug report about the allegedly broken Split() method, my comments and the submitted patch to reach backward compatibility for Python 2.6 have caused some confusion. So, I'd like to ask again: What is our current Python floor version for development ("default" branch)? My understanding was that we had agreed on already allowing "Python 2.7 only" changes some time ago. But SCons 2.3.2 and the website claim that we're still compatible with 2.4 and up. We either have to agree on supporting 2.6+2.7 for the current release 2.3.2, or the webpage has to get amended. And for the upcoming release we have to properly announce and make the clear cut to "2.7 only".
