Patch that probably needs work (1.36 KB, patch)

Description Willie Walker 2009-04-10 14:22:19 UTC 
This bug is in reference to the gnome-desktop-testing module in svn.  I looked for a bugzilla component for that, but was unable to find it.  So, I'm logging this bug under LDTP.  My apologies if I missed something.  :-(

Not all platforms have migrated off of Python 2.4.  As a result, some features of the gnome-desktop-testing project will not run on Python 2.4.  In particular, the use of the "finally:" clause in bin/desktop-testing of the gnome-desktop-testing module is what prompted me to open this bug.

Patch that probably needs work

This patch attempts to replicate the "finally" functionality for Python 2.4.  I think.  It should be reviewed by someone more familiar with finally than I am.  Thanks!
