Python version 2.6.8: If not, you get errors indicating “Invalid Python installation: unable to open ‘/cygdrive/c/Cygwin/include/python2.7/pyconfig.h”. This seems to be a regression since 2.6.8. Again, Cygwin tries to upgrade you to 2.7.3 every time you run the Cygwin setup utility. You must manually specify that you want 2.6.8.</div></blockquote></div><div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><br></div></div><div>I tracked down the cause of this issue (see <a href="https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132023">https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132023</a> if you are curious), and have updated our builders to use Python 2.7.</div><div><br></div><div>If you update to ToT WebKit, you should be able to safely build and run with Python 2.7.</div><div><br></div><div>I have also removed the warning in update-webkit that would complain about Python 2.7 when you attempted to get updated sources.</div><div><br></div><div>Please let me know if you encounter any problems with this new environment.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>-Brent</div></body></html>
