Created attachment 13218 [details] [review] pycairo-python23.patch My plan is to have pycairo require Python 2.4 now, and 2.5 and 2.6 next year, so that its in good shape to move to Python 3.0 when its released next year. Trying to remain compatible with Python 2.3 while preparing for Python 3.0 is not going to work very well. You don't have to immediately upgrade to the latest pycairo, the same as you don't have to upgrade to a newer version of Python - its your choice. OK, I was using the build script* for Mac OS X that builds from tip-of-trunk and pycairo was the only one demanding Python 2.4 - but I can understand that you need to prepare for Python 3000 so I will just patch locally, thanks for listening :-) * http://developer.imendio.com/svn/gtk-osx-build/gtk-osx-build |
