[jira] [Created] (THRIFT-1762) Python minimum version needs to be increased

Nathaniel Cook created THRIFT-1762:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Python minimum version needs to be increased
                 Key: THRIFT-1762
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1762
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python - Library
            Reporter: Nathaniel Cook
            Priority: Trivial


The python library code requires python >= 2.6 This can be seen with several "except Exception as x:" all throughout the code. Since this code has been release already in 0.9.0 we should just increase the minimum python version from 2.4 to 2.6

[jira] [Commented] (THRIFT-1762) Python minimum version needs to be increased

Todd Lipcon commented on THRIFT-1762:
-------------------------------------

With Cloudera hat on: The issue is that we don't ourselves run thrift, but rather distribute software which internally uses thrift. Our customers have to install that software on RHEL5, and they won't (or in some cases can't) install a different version of python on their machines.

So, this issue will prevent us from upgrading our stuff to use Thrift 0.9.0 most likely, and if we don't change it, we'll be stuck forever at an earlier release.

-------------------------------------

IMO we should treat this as a bug, instead, and fix it back to 2.4 compatibility. I know, at least in my company's usage of Thrift, we have to deploy on RHEL5 which only has Python 2.4.

Nathaniel Cook commented on THRIFT-1762:
----------------------------------------

We are running a RHEL5 environment too and find it easy enough to just install python26 and use it. All of the code we have written that consumes python thrift already requires 2.6. That is just my experiences with my company. I didn't look back to see when the breaking changes were made, but I wonder if anyone is using python 2.4 and what version of thrift they are using.

Todd Lipcon resolved THRIFT-1762.

    Resolution: Invalid

I opened THRIFT-1773 to track removing the 2.6 dependency

----------------------------------------

Make sense. Should we close this bug and create a new one or just change this one?
