[lldb-dev] Does anyone depend on using LLDB with Python 2.6?

[Todd Fiala via lldb-dev]

I think the older Ubuntus and the RHEL 7 line both still have a 2.7-based
python.  I am not aware of any system on the Linux/OS X side where we are
seeing Python 2.6 systems anymore.

Can't speak to the BSDs.

My guess would be we don't need to worry about python < 2.7.
