Like I said though, the reason why you can't install my mod_python package is because you are using python 2.4 instead of 2.3. If you want to use my binary package then you'll need to revert to the stock version of Python from EL4.

Our server is already running python 2.4 and the mod_python update attempt puts up an error which reads:
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.3.so.1.0()(64bit) is needed by package mod_python
Error: Missing Dependency: python-abi = 2.3 is needed by package mod_python]

But the issue I was attempting to report is that when your file, which is identified on the ftp as: mod_python-3.2.8-3.1.x86_64.rpm is called by yum, it is showing up as:
mod_python.x86_64 0:3.2.8-3.1.jason.1 with the name mangled. I was simply wondering whether this represents some issue with either the header or spec file.

My suggestion would be to revert to the standard EL4 version of Python.

I've thought about the issue I described in my prior note and have some additional information. The file mod_python-3.2.8-3.1.jason.1.x86_64.rpm is listed with the proper syntax in the repository, but when called by yum update, something is transposing the label of the file so it reads with the ".x86" before the version number and it is seperated by a "0:", rather than a "-". I added this to make clear the it seems to be transposing the arch type and the version number and replacing the seperator. Hope that is more clear.
Again, thanks for your efforts.

Thank you for your rpm depository. I wanted to report one small problem, which I haven't figured out yet. It has to do with the file: mod_python-3.2.8-3.1.jason.1.x86_64.rpm.

When I run yum update, using your repository, I am getting a strange reading of this file. It is showing up as: Package mod_python.x86_64 0:3.2.8-3.1.jason.1 (notice the space, then a 0, followed by a colon). I don't know if it is reading a header file incorrectly or there is some other error. When I attempt to update with this file it produced two dependency errors:
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.3.so.1.0()(64bit) is needed by package mod_python
Error: Missing Dependency: python-abi = 2.3 is needed by package mod_python] Our server already has newer versions of both these files.

When I use the file from the Fedora ftp it shows up as: mod_python-3.2.8-3.1.x86_64.rpm
and simply tells me the package is already installed. I'm new to this updating process, but I thought I'd report my experience, incase there is an error is some file which may be causeing the issue.

Thanks for your repository in any case. It's the only place where I've seen the MySQL 5.0.44 updates. Most others are still at 5.0.27; a few have 5.0.37; and a couple now have 5.0.41. Yours seems to be the most up to date. Again many thanks.
