Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Masao Takaku (tmasao) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Python 2.4 incompatibile at wikipedia.py Initial Comment: Hi, I've been using pywikipediabot for maintenance of categories and geocoding etc at my wiki site for half a year. Thanks for this nifty tool. I'm using trunk HEAD of pywikipedia bot library for my own script. I noticed several recent updates are incompatible for Python 2.4. For example: my script stopped with the following error: ==== Traceback (most recent call last): File "createpage.py", line 22, in ? import wikipedia as pywikibot File "/home/masao/cvswork/savemlak/../pywikipedia/wikipedia.py", line 4422 % (len(pages), u'via API ' if site.has_api() and debug else u'', site)) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax === Similar syntax error occurs at pywikibot/plural.py as well. This error is caused by a new conditional expression introduced in Python 2.5. cf. http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/2.5.html#pep-308 When I run my script under Python2.7, it works well. If Python 2.4 is no longer supported, documentation is needed. My running environment are as follows: Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r9587, 2011/10/05, 06:06:07) Python 2.4.3 (#1, Sep 21 2011, 19:55:41) [GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-51)] config-settings: use_api = True use_api_login = True unicode test: ok Best Regards, Masao ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=341929…
