Hi.
Or, to whomever this concerns... ;-)
I thought it would be prudent to install 3.1.1 for Windows from scratch, so I
uninstalled everything (CPython, ActivePython), and then installed Python 3.1.1.
In the "Advanced" option I told the installer to compile packages.
The compiler then found a few syntax errors apparently in some text conversion
test programs, and finally a message box popped up saying that "There is a
problem with this Windows Installer Package",

and the main installation dialog then reported "Python 3.1.1 installer ended
prematurely. [...] Your system has not been modified".

OK, I'll try again /without/ asking it to compile. I'm just reporting this so
that whoever needs to know knows (including maintainers and people wanting to
install this).
Cheers,
