a bit OT: But does anyone know why mod_python does not built anymore (testing; only i686; x86_64 builds fine). It needs a rebuilt due to changes in apache config. (module path) -- http://www.archlinux.de

Hi all,

I suppose it has been long enough that all the python packages have been updated from the old python2.4 directory ;) You do know why we had the old search path in there, right? Historically we've left it in there so that an upgrade from python 2.4 to python 2.5 wouldn't lose access to all the modules. When we go from 2.5 to 2.6 it'll probably be advisable to put it back in, at least until all the python modules have been rebuilt for 2.6. Jason
