Hi 

 

Some of us were discussing about the official stand on what version of
python one should use for Diablo. The web page says 2.6.x. If folks are
going to test on ubuntu 11.04 etc, then I guess things need to run on
2.7.x .....Clarification would be very useful.

Hi Dan 

 

Maybe we should talk to the Openstack list too .... We know OS works
fine on Ubuntu 11.04 with 2.7.2 and that dev env page was written in Jan
2011 before 11.04 came out. Maybe that will get updated soon!

 

Definitely, I'd encourage you to contact the main list.  A clarification
on this point would be useful.  I use 11.04 fairly frequently as well
and agree that I haven't seen any problems.

	Hi Edgar,

	 

	That's a good question.  I think this is a case where we would
invoke the "what is the larger openstack policy?" principle.  

	 

	My understanding is that Nova assumes python 2.6.x
(http://wiki.openstack.org/PythonDevelopmentEnvironment), though in
practice I suspect a general rule would be to avoid using anything that
will break in python 2.7 or python 3.x if there is a reasonable
alternative (hence, it often works on newer versions).   

	 

	RHEL can generally be a pain with OpenStack, though I know there
are people working on improving the experience.  I'd probably direct
this conversation to the OpenStack community as a whole if you have
further question or specific points you'd like to bring up.  Thanks,

	 

	Dan

	Hello Folks,

	 

	I would like to know if we have defined an official version of
Python to be used on all Quantum development. Is it 2.6 or 2.7?

	Is there any place on the Quantum blueprints where we have
defined the supported versions of all the libraries that we are using
for our development?

	 

	Thanks,

	 

	Edgar
