remove code that was required to support Python 2.6

Open Flamefire opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

As Python <2.7 support was dropped in EasyBuild 4.4 (see #3715) I cleaned up the code that supports 2.6 which means removal of OrderedDict as well as some more unittest/CI code

Additionally I fixed the known issue that installing EB in Python3 shows a syntax error warning.

Apart from that I think this is good enough. @boegel do you want a deprecation warning for HgRepository?

Rebased and updated. Please review.

Hmmm, this one has conflicts again...

Since we're doing a broader code cleanup in #4229 for the upcoming EasyBuild 5.0, I'm not sure it's worth the effort to get this PR merged for EasyBuild 4.x...

Why not? Rebased again and it is pretty simple removing some dead code which should make updates here easier.
