Twisted 15.4 will still operate, so if you have Python 2.6 deployment requirements, bracket the maximum to 15.4 on that platform by using an if statement in your setup.py, and `Twisted >=*minreq*,<=15.4; python_version < '2.7'` under requires_dist in your setup.cfg, where minreq is the minimum required Twisted. > > Sorry for the inconvenience! > > - Amber "HawkOwl" Brown > Twisted Release Manager > > _______________________________________________ > Twisted-Python mailing list > [email protected] > http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python > -- anatoly t.
