src/qfriendslol.pyw hashbang needlessly set to python2.6

[Wouter van Heyst]

The 0.1.1 release of qfriendslol src/qfriendslol.pyw starts out like this:

    #!/usr/bin/python2.6

As I run Debian Lenny which does, alas, not contain python2.6, this does not work for me.
Changing it to python2.5 seems to run fine though.

I would recommend chaging the first line to:

    #!/usr/bin/env python

to ensure a much wider range of python interpreters can pick up the task. If there really is need for a specific newer python and you don't want a SyntaxError to cryptically communicate that, 'sys.version_info' can be of help. Or see the evil reinvoke hack that bzr uses.

If I remember correctly, Toni said something about developing at first with python 2.6, because all maintainer had it and he also had python 3. If I'm correct, python 3 is backward compatible in most of case and I agree you opinion. However I let Toni to decide what to do.

I wasn't aware of a sys.version_info, but checking for correct version with that and throwing a pop up "You have python 3.0 installed. QFriendsLOL is only able to run on Python versions 2.5 - 2.6".

What will happen, if user has both Python 2.6 and Python 3.0 installed, while /usr/bin/python links to 3.0?
Won't use of "#!/usr/bin/env python" then break our software?

There is also /usr/bin/python2 which might be the correct one for this?
