Following the installation instructions at
http://das.nasophon.de/mididings/ I've built and installed mididings on Fedora 12 (2.6.32.11-99.fc12.x86_64) with python-2.6.2-4.fc12.x86_64. I had to make one small change in setup.py to get it to build and install successfully. I have not tested it yet, however.
(1) Installed the following RPMs to get setup.py to stop complaining of missing packages, and files:
pyliblo-0.8.1-1.fc12.x86_64, dbus-devel-1.2.16-9.fc12.x86_64, dbus-python-devel-0.83.0-6.fc12.x86_64, python-inotify-0.8.8-1.fc12.noarch, python-inotify-examples-0.8.8-1.fc12.noarch, tcl-8.5.7-5.fc12.x86_64, tk-8.5.7-3.fc12.x86_64, tix-8.4.3-4.fc12.x86_64, tkinter-2.6.2-4.fc12.x86_64, glib2-devel-2.22.5-1.fc12.x86_64,alsa-lib-devel-1.0.22-2.fc12.x86_64,jack-audio-connection-kit-devel-1.9.4-1.fc12.ccrma.x86_64, python-devel-2.6.2-4.fc12.x86_64, boost-devel-1.39.0-9.fc12.x86_64
(2) Building: gets an error "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_thread" even though boost-thread-1.39.0-9.fc12.x86_64 installed.

(3) Fixed Setup.py to link the library from boost-thread RPM:
