This really isn't the right mailing list to ask this kind of question (I
know you got help last time with your Debian-specific problem, but that was
because people got overly excited =). Python-dev is meant for discussing
the development *of* Python, not using it or developing *with* it.

I would try your question on comp.lang.python/python-list.
