A number of people in the Ubuntu community have attempted to work with
Python3.0 under Ubuntu 8.10 and almost all have found it to be a
frustrating and painful experience with some having disastrous
consequences. I was looking for the latest discussion thread on this
issue in the Ubuntu forums, but the forums are currently down. <br>
<br>
You might want to use Google to track this under Python 3.0 + Ubuntu
8.10.<br>
<br>
The overall consensus of opinion is to wait until Python 3.0 became the
default under Ubuntu before using it. <br>
YMMV.<br>

Any idea how this can be solved on Ubuntu 8.10. I don't have this
problem with the default Python installation (2.5.2)<br>
Thank you<br>
