Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Re-reading PEP 434, I was mistaken to apply this patch to 2.7 and 3.4 without further discussion. The PEP says "The PEP would apply to minor ..., but not necessarily to possible major re-writes such as switching to themed widgets ... ."
Nick, should I post something on python-ideas or pydev, or continue here (moved from #24750) about making the switch also in 2.7 and 3.4? I believe it would be best overall to at upgrade Idle 2.7, but I will not cry if we stop patching it now. Ditto for 3.4, which will soon get security fixes only anyway. I am ok with using ttk starting with 3.5. ---------- nosy: +ncoghlan resolution: fixed -> stage: resolved -> title: Idle: require 8.5 / ttk -> Idle: require ttk (and tcl/tk 8.5) _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24759> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
