Subversion bindings for Python 2.6 - epel-devel - Fedora mailing-lists

2 Jun 2011


      I have installed the "python26" package on my CentOS 5.6 box and it's
working quite well. I am trying to use the subversion bindings from
within a Python 2.6 script. Since the official "subversion" package
only installs bindings for Python 2.4, I added the file
"/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/svn.pth" with the line:
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages
I get the following warnings when I attempt running the Python 2.6
script which tells me this isn't the best solution:
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libsvn/fs.py:7: RuntimeWarning:
Python C API version mismatch for module _fs: This Python has API
version 1013, module _fs has version 1012.
  import _fs
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libsvn/fs.py:7: RuntimeWarning:

Python has API version 1013, module swig_runtime_data4 has version
1012.
  import _fs
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libsvn/core.py:7: RuntimeWarning:

  import _core
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libsvn/delta.py:7: RuntimeWarning:
Python C API version mismatch for module _delta: This Python has API
version 1013, module _delta has version 1012.
  import _delta

Python C API version mismatch for module _repos: This Python has API

  import _repos
Are there any plans to create a separate package for the subversion
bindings for Python 2.6? I understand I can download SWIG and build
the bindings myself, but I'd prefer an RPM solution if one exists.

By the way, I'm the same person who asked about later versions of Trac
on CentOS 5. I ended up using the "python26-distribute" package and
executing `easy_install-2.6 Trac`, which ended up working very well.
