Are you sure?
On an up to date system:
# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.2 (Final) # rpm -q python python-2.4.3-21.el5 # rpm -q --provides python | grep -Fw 'python(abi)' python(abi) = 2.4
You should look at where your friend got this Python from.
Some more testing shows
# python -V Python 2.4.3
as well. He had me download the 2.5.1 source for Python and compile it. Of course that broke the previously installed rpms, like yum!
I am going to either have to find 2.5 that I can install on Centos (from a Fedora box), but that will most likely break even more things. Or get him to build a Centos box and do the build there...
