[Buildbot-devel] remove new Python 2.5 dependency?

Hi all.  There's a (very) unnecessary dependency on Python 2.5 on master right now:

Compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/buildbot/test/test_vc.py ...
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/buildbot/test/test_vc.py", line 2611
    w = self.dovc(workdir, ['update', '--clean', '--rev', branch if branch else 'default'])

While I'm actually not a hard-head about keeping 2.4 support around, it is convenient to have, and this test is a silly reason to start removing support for 2.4 and (AIUI) 2.5.  Can we convert the ternary to "branch or 'default'" and move on, perhaps until there's a more compelling reason to depend on 2.5 or 2.6?

Thanks

Gary
