I quickly checked the patch and it's surprisingly large. One notable change: -# Provide support for both python 2 and 3 -PY2 = sys.version_info[0] == 2 -# End of code to support for both python 2 and 3
I overlooked this indeed.
Should not we warn users that we stop support for python 2 for 2.4.5?
If we keep dropping support then yes. IMHO it is not a problem to drop python 2 support, python 2 EOL was more than five years ago: https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/
And is necessary at the end of the stable series (not sure how difficult is to keep that working)?
I did the same as Riki did for 2.3: Import the complete lyx2lyx package from the next release. The alternative would be to import only lyx_2_5.py and do adjustments where needed. If you prefer to do that I can have a look.
My personal opinion: We want to release this lyx2lyx as the new stable version. For the first release of a new major version it needs to be rock solid, since almost all users will use it to load their old documents. If we are not confident that lyx2lyx works well enough we should rather work on that instead of trying a slightly different version for the last stable release of the old version.
