Question about installing 1.5 on LINUX 5.0.  I am unable to install 1.5
because LINUX is using Python 1.4 for some system support, including
RPM.  Is there a safe method for installing 1.5?

Has anyone installed Linux 5.2?  Is Python 1.5 available on 5.2.  I
have the CD for 5.2 but haven't upgraded yet.
