Good call, looks like python is 2.5 (although the typical 2.3 package is installed). Probably, someone else using this machine needed 2.5 at some point.
Let's say we still have a good reason to need python 2.5. Is this going to break a lot of the system-whatever commands? Are there any workarounds?
Thanks again,
Matt
