Dunno how this happened. Note to developers: You have my full cooperation. If this is a packaging problem, please let me know what I can do to help fix it (hariseldon99). I really need python to be working.

This is actually something that we've fixed in FC4
(In reply to comment #1) > This is actually something that we've fixed in FC4 Erm, here's the wierd thing. There is a bug in fc4 installer that causes it to crash whenever I try to install it. I tried the "garbage' fix in: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-June/msg03392.html . It started the installer, but it crashed whenever I tried to upgrade. Screenshots of tty's at the time of the crash are here: http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~daneel/photoalbum/KIPIHTMLExport/mem1/index.html Is there any possibility that this can be fixed in fc3?
Very unlikely for this to be backported to fc3, mostly because it requires significant packaging changes.
