Hello all, As per this pull request I would like to use the unittest2 backport on a case-by-case basis when running Biopython unit tests on Python 2.7: https://github.com/biopython/biopython/pull/961 i.e. Some tests will be skipped on Python 2.7 unless unittest2 is installed. We did this for a while under Python 2.6 for other things added to the unittest library in Python 2.7 onwards. Here the motivation is assertWarns added in Python 3.2: https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.assertWarns Assuming no objections by Friday, I'll apply this pull request, Thanks, Peter
