Thanks, It's strange though I copied and pasted from the page http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs/yum-rh8.php which reads: # rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-4.1.1- 1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-build- 4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-devel- 4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-python -4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/popt-1.7.1 -1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/updates/i386/python-1.5.2-43 .72.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/updates/i386/gnupg-1.0.7-14. i386.rpm It seems like 8.0 is still supported to some extend, it is kind of scary for me to upgrade to 9.0 the production server, for downtime would mess a lot of things up.

Try http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/os/i386/python-2.2.1-17.i386 .rpm HTH, John P.S. 8.0 is not supported due to lack of community participation. You should consider upgrading to 9 if possible. -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
