[GHC] #12909: Python 3.2 doesn't support Unicode literal syntax

#12909: Python 3.2 doesn't support Unicode literal syntax -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Test Suite | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Simonpj noticed that the Python 3.2 interpreter on his Ubuntu 12.04 installation doesn't support Unicode literal syntax (e.g. `u'hello'`). Indeed it seems this syntax was dropped in Python 3 and later re- introduced in Python 3.3 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0414/). At this point we have a decision to make: Either drop the uses of Unicode literals in the driver (and, consequently, support for Python 2) or keep things as they are and demand Python >3.3. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12909 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
