Ah, didn't know about that! I can't imagine what problems there would be; not much changed in 2.4 that can't be emulated in 2.3. Anyway, I'll have a look. Thanks! > I don't have a Python 2.3 available to attempt to test. To be honest I've > never even used Python 2.3. Heh. Noob. ;-) (j/k) 2.3 is basically 2.4 minus decorators, generator expressions, various builtins and stdlib features. Unless you used set types, reversed(), or various other odds and ends, I should be able to backport it. > [stuff about RHEL support] If there's a 2.4 hashlib backport, that addresses my concerns just fine. If I need to, I'll backport it to setuptools 0.6. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
