Steve Dower added the comment: The PEP doesn't really apply to 2.7, apart from explicitly expecting tools to still detect 32-bit and 64-bit versions despite sys.winver being the same.
As for sys.winver being incorrect in 2.7.11, that's been fixed (issue25824), but wasn't deemed critical enough to release 2.7.12 immediately. The next update will be released soon with the fix. ---------- resolution: -> duplicate status: open -> closed superseder: -> 32-bit 2.7.11 installer creates registry keys that are incompatible with the installed python27.dll _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26998> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
