>             Project: Beam
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: sdk-py
>    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
>            Reporter: Tibor Kiss

>            Priority: Trivial
>             Fix For: First stable release

>
> Python SDK currently supports Python-2.7 only.
> apache_beam package's init uses named component attribute (sys.version_info.*major*) to bail if unsupported Python is used.
> The named component based version was introduced in Python 2.7 thus
> if one uses older Python version (e.g. 2.6) an AttributeError will be thrown:
> {noformat}
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "apache_beam/examples/complete/autocomplete_test.py", line 22, in <module>
>     import apache_beam as beam
>   File "/Users/tiborkiss/workspace/beam/sdks/python/apache_beam/__init__.py", line 69, in <module>
>     if sys.version_info.major != 2:
> AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'major'
> {noformat}
> To fix this problem the {{sys.version_info.major}} should be replaced by {{sys.version_info[0]}}.
