RE: getversion.py invalid syntax

Hi Daniel,

Don't know about 2.5 but 2.6 is still actively maintained so I can't argue with that. :) Guess it is just easier to install Python 2.6 than make the scripts backwards-compatible with newer Python versions.

Thanks.

No, it's not a known bug. We require 2.5 or newer, so we'll be happy to accept patches here as long as they don't break compat with those older versions.
