Python 2.5 packages for evaluation

Hi,

I've just finished building python25 packages for FC5 and rawhide. They should install just fine alongside the standard 2.4.3 python packages.

To invoke them, you will need to use python25 instead of python as an interpreter.

Python 2.5c1 was released last night and has the status of Release Candidate 1. So, it should be stable enough by now. But, because they do not _replace_ the stock python, all add-on modules will be unavailable.

I would appreciate if you'd let me know if they don't treat you right.

To view the original announcement of Python 2.5:

For rawhide / FC6 test: http://people.redhat.com/misa/rpms/python-2.5-rawhide

For gpg info, see my signature.

Thanks, Misa
