Hint: it's much better to make a commitment that any packages installed 
in an RPM-based system are done with an RPM rather than using the "make 
install" process directly. It'll make your life much easier.

(shameless plug, again) If you *are* interested in getting yum 2.4.0 for 
EL4, you can get the necessary packages here: 
http://python.org/pyvault.  However, you will get python 2.4.2 as a 
result (see full disclosure). 

If this is not okay, consider using rpmbuild to make the yum 2.4.0 rpm 
which will build against your system python (2.3.x) and will make it 
easier for you to manage.
