I am not certain as to which "agreement" you refer. However, I can understand that historically we viewed the python tools as less "essential" than they appear to have become.
Just as we moved from CVS to SVN and at that time required all Tiger machines to install an SVN package, so too today are an increasingly large number of our scripts moving from depending on perl 5 to Python 2.5+. I would appreciate assistance from the bot maintainer to update the one Tiger machine, as it is the only machine which uses such an old copy of Python. All other operating systems/machines already use much newer versions of Python. The WebKit project requires Leopard's 2.5 python as a minimum installed version. I will post a patch to update the tools.html page to note the requirement shortly. -eric On Thu, May 6, 2010 at 9:54 PM, Alexey Proskuryakov <[email protected]> wrote: > > I thought the agreement was that "essential" tools shouldn't add more > requirements on the installed tools.
