SCons is still compatible with Python 1.5. Distutils was written in the 1.5-1.6 timeframe; it has been updated since, but it is basically unmaintained at this point (if you exclude the setuptools stuff which is its disputed maintenance/evolution). subprocess has been introduced in Python 2.4. -- Giovanni Bajo _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
