using the system python you could be
in EPEL RHEL5 includes python-2.4 RHEL4
python-2.3
Will EPEL be included in /etc/yum.repos.d in future Fedora releases?
EPEL is for RHEL most but not all EPEL packages are already in fedora
If compat-python24 is promoted into Fedora proper would that then
mean
we would be a candidate for inclusion in Fedora proper?
if then yes
Is there any likelihood that compat-python24 will be promoted into
Fedora proper?
highly unlikely. hopefully plone/zope will be made to work with
python-2.5+
then you will be ok to go into fedora.
Sorry for all the questions... Just trying to better understand all
the different groups, projects, and policies. :)
Thank you all for your help so far in understanding the environment.
