Subject: swc-installation-test-2.py: Avoid BaseException.message warning
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=986c677bcaa837c5cebaf9d9aa63ea2ff38bf7c2;p=swc-workshop.git

swc-installation-test-2.py: Avoid BaseException.message warning

Dodge the logic which (at least in Python 2.6.1) raises:

  DeprecationWarning: BaseException.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6

We're setting the .message attribute explicitly, so the deprecation
warning does not apply to us.  The fix was suggested by Brett Cannon:
