[CentOS] upgrade python to python2.6.4 using yum

Hi

How would i upgrade python to python2.6.4 using a yum repository ( on all my
servers ) and cause manual configuration is time consuming, i am using cent
OS 5.4 32 bit

Is there an already available repository to do this.?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had tried to install it using contemporary method ( ./configure ; make
;make install) .. but i get the following error when trying to upgrade .

make

Modules/posixmodule.o  Modules/errnomodule.o  Modules/pwdmodule.o

running build
running build_ext

Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
bsddb185           sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the
module's name.

running build_scripts

=================================================================

any reference / tips will be of great help
