RE: [viewvc-users] ImportError: No module name svn

Sorry to have bothered you guys.

It was as I thought, ViewVC was using the old python. After I made /usr/bin/python and /usr/bin/python2 sym link to /usr/local/bin/python everything started working.

Not sure I need both python and python2 to point to the new version but this is something I can investigate.

Sorry for wasting your time.
