New built-in features: * PEP 616, string methods to remove prefixes and suffixes. (NB: We talk about this one a few weeks ago) New features in the standard library: * PEP 593, flexible function and variable annotations; * os.pidfd_open() added that allows process management without races and signals. [...] New library modules: [...] * an implementation of a topological sort of a graph is now provided in the new graphlib module. > --- > lib/bb/__init__.py | 4 ++-- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/lib/bb/__init__.py b/lib/bb/__init__.py > index 876f7e3976..d3e90d03be 100644 > --- a/lib/bb/__init__.py > +++ b/lib/bb/__init__.py > @@ -12,8 +12,8 @@ > __version__ = "2.9.1" > > import sys > -if sys.version_info < (3, 8, 0): > - raise RuntimeError("Sorry, python 3.8.0 or later is required for this version of bitbake") > +if sys.version_info < (3, 9, 0): > + raise RuntimeError("Sorry, python 3.9.0 or later is required for this version of bitbake") > > if sys.version_info < (3, 10, 0): > # With python 3.8 and 3.9, we see errors of "libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work" > > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- > Links: You receive all messages sent to this group. > View/Reply Online (#17473): https://lists.openembedded.org/g/bitbake-devel/message/17473 > Mute This Topic: https://lists.openembedded.org/mt/111796719/4316185 > Group Owner: bitbake-devel+owner@lists.openembedded.org > Unsubscribe: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/bitbake-devel/unsub [yoann.congal@smile.fr] > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- >

Since Ubuntu 20.04 is heading to EoL and that we're having other issues on that platform needing buildtools anyway, we're about to lose the last python 3.8 platform we were supporting. Bump the minimum version to 3.9 since there are many developers wanting access to newer python features.
