Thanks for the report Steve.
I’m not very familiar with the typical use cases of Python on Windows. How frequent is such a scenario (multiple versions of Python installed on the same Windows system)?
I can see two possibilities to address this issue:
(a) Generate two installers, one for Python 2.6 and one for Python 2.7
(b) Generate an installer that embeds both versions
(b) would definitely require more work, but it may be more convenient for users if there’s a real use case.
