Zenmap build requirements for windows

Hi folks,

I just had a fun couple of hours trying to get Zenmap to compile on
windows since it now requires Python 2.6; but all is well now.  The
mswin32/buildguide.txt (and probably zenmap/README too) ought to be
updated to reflect the changes, but I want to confirm that the binaries
I installed on windows are the ones other people might be using.

So installed:

python-2.6.1.msi
gtk-dev-2.12.9-win32-2.exe
pygtk-2.12.1-3.win32-py2.6.exe
pygobject-2.14.2-2.win32-py2.6.exe
pycairo-1.4.12-2.win32-py2.6.exe
pysqlite-2.5.1.win32-py2.6.exe
py2exe-0.6.9.win32-py2.6.exe

zenmap/README asserts that the list of required software includes
"Python 2.4 or higher" which obviously now needs to be 2.6 - also "GTK+
2.6 or higher" and "PyGTK 2.6 or higher".
PyGTK 2.12 was the lowest numbered version I could find found for python
2.6 on windows so, for windows at least, I believe that the minimum
requirement is PyGTK 2.12 and GTK+ 2.12.

Does anyone know different?  Is this only applicable to windows?

Regards,

jah
