Re: Installation -- July 31, 2009 - 10:29

Hi,

You will now be able to find and install minfx-1.0.2
(https://gna.org/projects/minfx/) which has support for Python 2.6.  I
hope there aren't too many other problems, I have run the test suite
of the repository version of relax-1.3 with Python 2.6 and there seems
to be no problems.  With relax-1.3.3, the RelaxWarning system fails
with Python2.6!  I fixed this in the source code repository a while
ago, therefore I will have have to make a relax-1.3.4 release soon.
If you can't wait, you can get this code using subversion (SVN) by
typing:

$ svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/relax/1.3 relax-1.3

or if this doesn't work:

$ svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/relax/1.3 relax-1.3

Regards,

Edward
