Hello, I'm also going to update all my C5p buildservers to mock-0.9.19 and try to build the needed stuff upon Python 2.4 (-devel) which is normally shipped with [base]. Is it right that I have to update Python to 2.5 (shortly for building) to get the missing ffi member (see below) accessed that seems to be in there? I try to build the python-ctypes-1.0.2-2.el5 version. Does anyone had the same issue? What python-ctypes version do you use or prefer? Cheers, Brian.
