hot-backup.py error question
I'm a bit of a newbie on subversion.
Trying to run hot-backup but getting an error message:
hot-backup.py --archive=gz /sub /subbackup
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "hot-backup.py", line 68, in ?
opts, args = getopt.gnu_getopt(sys.argv[1:], "h?", ["archive-type=",
"help"])
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'gnu_getopt'
Running python2.2.3
Have I missed something?
Thx Andy

http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-getopt.html says
gnu_getopt is new in version 2.3, so an upgrade of your python install
should do the trick.

hot_backup.py needs a newer version of Python, because in 2.2.x the
getopt module didn't have a method called gnu_getopt.
You should probably get Python 2.5.
