I think this was my problem- I don't have the Modules directory at all. I had
had to do an rpm --rebuild on the Python rpm to get Tkinter installed at all,
but up till now I had thought it had all installed fine. I followed the
directions for compiling _pg manually, found out there was no PQsetdblogin
in the PostgreSQL libraries that I had on my system, so I installed the latest
version, and now everything works.
Thanks-
Felix
