A couple of weeks ago I reported a problem I noticed with Python 2.7 in our
Cygwin-based builds:
> 2. Python version 2.6.8: If not, you get errors indicating “Invalid Python
> installation: unable to open
> ‘/cygdrive/c/Cygwin/include/python2.7/pyconfig.h”. This seems to be a
> regression since 2.6.8. Again, Cygwin tries to upgrade you to 2.7.3 every
> time you run the Cygwin setup utility. You must manually specify that you
> want 2.6.8.
I tracked down the cause of this issue (see
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132023 if you are curious), and have
updated our builders to use Python 2.7.
If you update to ToT WebKit, you should be able to safely build and run with
Python 2.7.
I have also removed the warning in update-webkit that would complain about
Python 2.7 when you attempted to get updated sources.
Please let me know if you encounter any problems with this new environment.
Thanks,
-Brent
