I cannot download anything into Koji because I don't have 
network available there (and of course bundling from the third 
party sources is strictly verbotten in Fedora/RHEL). However, we 
have now python-mako1.0 in EPEL-6 
(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2015-0534/python-mako1.0-1.0.1-2.el6) 
and I am working on python-backport_collections 
(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/backport_collections and 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1187224). So, 
I think there is some hope.

I was taking look also at the code itself and so far i have 
changed all imports of collections to the proper shape (I hope 
proper) and changed all {} formats to {0} (or {1} etc.). So far 
I have http://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/piglit-python-2_6.patch 
Does anybody see anything else which could be missing (now 
building an RHEL-6 virtual machine to make some more tests)?

Best,

Matěj
