WTF ?

Which version of python do you use ?

[Christophe Simonis (OpenERP) (kangol)]

I respond myself: python 2.4

I was also on phyton2.4, glad it is fixed. :-) I will import the fix and try and report back.

[Jan Verlaan (jan-verlaan)]

Fix tested --> ok
Imported the latest trunk revision. Able to create a new functional database.

One remark -> The option to insert your company specific data and a selection option to choose a company profile (like service, crm, etc) while doing the initialize company is missing.
I will check the open bugs and if not listed I will create one.

Regards,
Jan
