Is it ok if I install Python 2.6.4 instead of the 2.4 requirement listed

Is it ok if I install Python 2.6.4 instead of the 2.4 requirement listed on the Mercurial website?

I’m fairly new to Mercurial and Python. My general impression of Python is that newer versions break compatibility with older versions.

If Python is currently at 2.6.4 and Mercurial 1.4.3 lists Python 2.4 as a requirement, maybe they are strictly limiting to Python 2.4 only?

    2.4 is a minimum requirement. 2.6.4 is fine.
