From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010929 Description of problem: Installing python-2.2 removed the 1.5 files. Maybe a python1.5 should be provided, bridging the gap until all is converted (if this is the plan). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install python-2.2 2. 3. Actual Results: Many .spec files still have hardcoded paths to python1.5 such as rpm-4.0.3-1.0.4, parted-1.4.16-8. Also other packages are affected, indirectly: redhat-config-network-0.9-1 via alchemist etc Additional info: rpm -qf /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/* recompile: alchemist-1.0.18-1 MySQL-python-0.9.0-2 pygtk-0.6.8-3 m2crypto-0.05_snap4-2 pygnome-1.4.1-3 pygnome-applet-1.4.1-3 pygnome-capplet-1.4.1-3 pygnome-libglade-1.4.1-3 pygnome-gtkhtml-1.4.1-3 pygnome-gtkhtml-1.4.1-3 pygtk-0.6.8-3 pygtk-glarea-0.6.8-3 pygtk-libglade-0.6.8-3 python-xmlrpc-1.4.5-0.7.x kudzu-0.99.23-1 libuser-0.32-1 mx-2.0.2-1 parted-1.4.16-7 rpm-python-4.0.3-0.96 pychecker-0.7.5-1
Yes, and this was reported after the last rawhide release! python-2.2 should not be out there until all other packages are fixed to install into the new directory.
Everything has been updated now - the libraries now work with python 2.2. See the limbo beta for more info.
