Tomaz Muraus commented on LIBCLOUD-257:
---------------------------------------
Ah, thanks for the explanation. I'll have a look at Python source code and see
how HEAD requests are handled in 2.6 and 2.7.
As far as only running the code in some versions, we use sys.version_info.
> S3 get_object hangs when object doesn't exist but only on python 2.6

> A colleague wrote a proof-of-concept script against S3 with libcloud and
> python 2.7. When I tried to run it on a 2.6 machine it failed. It hung whilst
> calling get_object. I traced this back to a change between python 2.6 and 2.7
> and how it handles 'HEAD' requests.
