[petsc-dev] Do we still need to support python 2.4?

[Leoni, Massimiliano]

Satish,
Yes, I referred to that. Also miniconda can do, followed by a hard coded list of conda install <package> for the packages you want.

Lisandro,
I am currently using it on RHEL6.4 and it works flawlessly. You would need to on a RHEL5 though, if you have one at hand, but I would expect that no big problems arise.
