Sorry, gotta put in my $0.02. The fink/debian package system is
actually pretty smart, and having this version available helps when
the rest of your developers use various Unix Pythons. I asked Tony
about this a couple of hours ago, and he mentioned that the whole
debian stuff could be very well utilized for more version control
when installing "extra Python packages" if I understood him
correctly. To sum up: Add whatever links, but please don't remove
the fink link from python.org.
