greetings,

in general, I install rpms when I can find them from 'trusted' sources
(check <http://andrich.net/python/> for latest python rpms).. they have
already been compiled, and generally whatever headaches required to fix
compilation problems have already been ironed out.. go for it.. it can't
hurt.. if it *still* doesn't work, then let me know, and we can work from
there... also, before you install the rpms, I would suggest removing old
versions of the interpreter that may have been installed in /usr/local/...
it "shouldn't" hurt anything to leave them around, but just to be on the
safe side, that's what I would do.

let me know if that helps.

regards,
J
