syntax error installing trac trunk changeset:6182

[stephen.bannasch@…]

I'm updating an installation of trac trunk checked out with svn on MacOS 10.4.11 with the stock Python 2.3 installed.

After updating to r6182 and running the installer:

$ sudo python ./setup.py install

I get a syntax error at source:/trunk/trac/ticket/web_ui.py@6182#L970​.

Reverting back to changeset:6171 allows trac to install and run successfully on my system.

Here's a stack trace showing the errorL

Woops, that's a Python 2.4ism (generator syntax) that went in in r6171.

[Christian Boos]

Fixed in [6183].

Please reopen that ticket, if you find another issue with 2.3, even unrelated to the above one (i.e. it's not a ticket for all 2.3 issues ever, just the ones one could eventually find with the current state of the trunk, pre-0.11beta1).
