Python 2.6 is end-of-life, and we should be recommending Python 2.7. This patch updates two of the three places Python 2.6 was referred to in the documentation, removing the reference to 2.6 but keeping the 2.7 reference. The final place is in the debian packages section of the install guide, which notes several issues with Python 2.7 that could now be solved. If this is the case, this entire section should probably be removed. Change-Id: I8c4043d180bc47de2afc40ce73640982f4c2f663
