Look into lib/scripts/lyxpreview_tools.py for 1.4.x
The following chunk fixes this:
# compatibility with python 2.2
if sys.version_info[:3] == (2, 2, 0):
__builtin__.True = (1 == 1)
__builtin__.False = (1 == 0)
def bool(value):
"""Demote a value to 0 or 1, depending on its truth value
This is not to be confused with types.BooleanType, which is
way too hard to duplicate in 2.1 to be worth the trouble.
"""
return not not value
__builtin__.bool = bool
del bool
# end compatibility chunk
Now that I see this in more detail I see that it wrong the first test should
be:
if sys.version_info[:2] == (2, 2)
I should prepare a patch for 1.4.
