Is the newer Python needed to build, or just as part of the source code control?
Comment 3 Eric Seidel (no email) 2010-05-09 18:25:02 PDT
A newer python is only required to run the following scripts:
webkit-patch
new-run-webkit-tests
new-run-webkit-httpd
new-run-webkit-websocketserver
As well as the websocket tests (see bug 38034).

The buildbot config, as well as QueueStatusServer and TestResultsServer also depend on a newer python.

A newer python is not required to check out the source code or to build.
Comment 4 Eric Seidel (no email) 2010-05-09 18:26:23 PDT
I should mention explicitly, that excepting the websocket tests (see bug 38034) python (of any version) is not required to run old-run-webkit-tests (aka run-webkit-tests).
