That could be a warning not an error. It's fun: with cython you can use decorators, generators and more with py2.3, may be it's better to drop support after 0.15? I hope it would be easy to fix this error: https://sage.math.washington.edu:8091/hudson/job/cython-devel-tests-py23-c/871/console -- vitja. _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
