minify fails with ply 3.6

minify fails with the following error when using with ply 3.6 (released on 2015-04-26):

  ...
  File "/home/vagrant/Eggs/slimit-0.8.1-py2.7.egg/slimit/minifier.py", line 37, in minify
    parser = Parser()
  File "/home/vagrant/Eggs/slimit-0.8.1-py2.7.egg/slimit/parser.py", line 56, in __init__
    self.lexer.build(optimize=lex_optimize, lextab=lextab)
  File "/home/vagrant/Eggs/slimit-0.8.1-py2.7.egg/slimit/lexer.py", line 102, in build
    self.lexer = ply.lex.lex(object=self, **kwargs)

Opened ply 3.6 issue since lex.py seems to have the bug.

Same here, going to 3.4 did the trick. I also made it work with 3.6 forcing the lextab and yacctab arguments to be strings instead of passing the module.

The problem is easy to reproduce by doing:

from slimit.parser import Parser
Parser()

Same to me: downgrading ply to 3.4 and it works well.

+1 had to downgrade to ply 3.4 to get things working. Was having issues while running compress using django-compress

fyi, this is fixed in ply 3.8, which is now on pypi, see https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ply.
