How do I find out if Python 2.4.3 contains abi?
I'm not sure what you're asking. Python's ABI version would be 2.4.3,
but if you're referring to a module 'abi', I don't think one exists?
You can always fire up python and type 'import <modulename>' to see if
that module exists.
Well no such module exists in either 2.4.3 or 2.5.1, so what is being
complained about in the yum install below? Only that python v2.5 is
needed? (I have been trying to get my colleague to either set me up
to compile the source or for him to build a Centos host to do it
himself).

BTW, if you are interested, this is the hipl implementation of the
HIP protocol.
It looks like those RPMS are not built for CentOS-5 ... but were
instead built against a version of linux with a newer version of
python installed.
They were built against FC8. My colleague has given me source compile
instructions:
you can get the sources either via version control or the nightly tarball:
wget http://hipl.hiit.fi/hipl/hipl.tar.gz
you can build on CentOS by executing:
tar xvzf hipl.tar.gz
cd hipl--main--2.6
./autogen.sh
./configure
make rpm
("make install" works too, but installs to /usr/local by default)
Software requirements are listed here:
http://infrahip.hiit.fi/hipl/manual/ch02.html
You can't install FC8 packages (for example) directly on CentOS-5 ...
all the shared libraries are different, so the required things will
not exist.
So I have learned. I really expected this, but my colleague was away
and pointed me to his FC8 build.
depending on the item in question, you might be able to BUILD it from
the sources on CentOS-5 and then use it ... I have no idea what hipl
is or does.
