Hello, There are several bugs that were fixed between python 2.4.1 and 2.4.3 (including some bugs found by coverity), plus several bug fixes in the packaging itself. For a list of changes in python (the language), check out: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4.3/NEWS.txt Therefore, I went ahead and built new python packages, and pushed them in updates/testing. You can retrieve them for your architecture from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/4 or you can enable your updates-testing yum repo and install the newer python (and python-docs) by running: yum --enablerepo updates-testing update python python-docs I am not expecting any major problems with python itself, since it has been tested quite extensively in rawhide and FC5 already, but I'd really appreciate help especially testing modules/programs outside of the python distribution (like python-sqlite2, yum, postgresql-python etc). Please use bugzilla to report any problems you find. If things go ok with a particular piece of software, please drop me an email - I am in the process of creating a wiki page. Thanks!
