From 372e26118f298f38b45c244fdb77785245ceefca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Heiner Date: Sat, 12 Oct 2013 12:44:30 -0400 Subject: Bail early with a clear error message if Python runtime isn't 2.7+. Prior to this a test that used a feature too new for the runtime would blow up when it was "exec"d (possibly in the middle of a run of a bunch of tests) with an error message that was not very helpful. Remove Python 2.5 and 2.6 runtimes from the list configure searches. 2.5 suffers the problem described above. The code currently will run on 2.6 but, as was noted on the dev list, that runtime is at the end of its life, so 2.7 is a better cutoff.
