Message-ID: <20190927160501.GU11486@bill-the-cat> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Hey all, I'm currently kicking test.py to use Python 3 instead of Python 2.7 and seeing places where it would (seemingly) be nice to be able to say that we have Python 3.6 as our minimum version. To do this however we'll have to tell people using older LTS distributions that they need to figure out the best way for them to install a newer Python is, if they want to run tests at least. This will also mean moving GitLab to "bionic" rather than "xenial", but that's not too bad and I've done so for trying to get all of the fs tests to run (they don't, but I think that's down to needing to kick gitlab-runner harder) and also moving Travis-CI to bionic but that too is now just a few-line change to .travis.yml So, does anyone object to saying that for everything that uses Python to work, Python 3.6 or newer is needed, and for more common tools we'll make best-effort to support older? -- Tom -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
