Hi all, So the setup module contains a bit of Python 2.6-only code, which is not good on supporting older platforms that have only 2.4 … which is something we still want to support. It's important. This isn't a problem for anyone who doesn't have any Python 2.4 infrastructure (like RHEL5), but if you do, it is. We will probably do a minor 0.7.1 release and tar ball in the coming days. To allow anyone to fix any bugs found on the release-0.7 branch, I'm not going to release this immediately, we'll probably shoot for early next week. Everyone writing modules should make sure they only use Python 2.4 compatible code. This is usually something I review, though in this case it was string.format and it slipped through. Thanks! --Michael ---

Another trivial issue... In the included rpm spec file:-   - Date stamp for 0.7 has been copied from 0.6 (so is in August)   - The changelog entries refer to a -0 release, but the spec     uses a -1 release - ie the line should say:- \* Thu Sep 6 2012 Michael DeHaan \ - 0.7-1   Nigel. ---

Aha, you have discovered my perchant for time travel. I really should be more careful about covering that up. You can send a pull request against the release-0.7 branch if you want. (What is released is actually 0.7.0, FWIW, regardless of changelog)
