Python 2.6.5

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi Malek!

Why do you limit the minimum version 2.6.6. It also works great with Python 
2.6.5 or I'm wrong. In any case, my application tests are positive. But I do 
not use all of the features, only Idle, Timer, Io, Signal.

As far as is reasonable it restriction? Python 2.6.5 is base version for many 
stable Linux distribution such as for example Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. By doing this 
You are severely limits the using scope of your application.

WBR, Alexey

should be fixed in trunk for 2.6.5. can you test?
pyev really needs a test suite to validate all platforms and version supported, 
and I really need help here (so if you're willing to contribute you're welcome 
:))

hope it helps

Hey Malek,

I just pulled pyev in as an EventHub implementation for my coroutine-based I/O 
library diesel:

This particular issue is pretty important--I think a huge number of production 
deployments are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS these days (we are at http://bu.mp for 
example); do you mind pushing up a dot version to pypi with this setup.py fix 
so that pip/setuptools works again on Ubuntu Lucid?

Thanks!

Seconded, re: making this work on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I know "me too!" type 
emails are unfortunate, but this is an easy fix and we'd love to have this 
work. Thanks.
