Subject: [RFC 6/6] doc: changes: update Python minimal version
Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2025 17:09:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c66adbfef8142daea502f350a2583d51de8d08df.1738166451.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1738166451.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
The current minimal version doesn't match what we have currently
at the Kernel:
$ vermin -v $(git ls-files *.py)
...
Minimum required versions: 3.10
Incompatible versions: 2
Those are the Python scripts requiring versions higher than current minimal (3.5):

Even if we exclude tools/net/sunrpc/xdrgen/, the minimal version is
Python 3.9.
Update process/changes to reflect the current minimal version required to
run Python scripts outside tools.
