The system is completely dependent on the version of python supplied with it (2.4.3) and by replacing it with 2.6 you have effectively broken large parts of it. Why not just go with the version is EPEL that has been previously recommended in this thread? It installs side-by-side with the system supplied python and as such doesn't break anything. There is the added bonus that the EPEL supplied python will actually get updated. John -- Much of what looks like rudeness in hacker circles is not intended to give offence. Rather, it's the product of the direct, cut-through-the-bullshit communications style that is natural to people who are more concerned about solving problems than making others feel warm and fuzzy. http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
