Guido,

Can you elaborate?  I rarely have any problem installing stuff that's
packaged as an RPM.  If I understand your statement correctly, the Windows
Python installer had the same sort of problem with Tcl/Tk until the decision
was made to bite the bullet and simply include it as part of the installer.
