Hi
We use Linux debian/stable at work which currently comes with Python 2.3.5.
There seems to be a slight incompatibility in the standard List library.
Specifically, when using cvs or cvsps as source, I get a runtime error
complaining that 'sort' doesn't take a keyword parameter. I checked this
and found that Python 2.3.5 indeed only supports a compare function as an
optional parameter, but not with keyword. My solution was to simply drop
the 'cmp=' in the argument to sort(); this should be compatible with the
2.5 libraries (AFAIU). If, for some reason, this is not desired, a note in
the installation docs would be nice ('needs python 2.x or later'), and/or
maybe a check in the setup script.
Cheers
Ben
