I am actually building qemu on CentOS 5.11 with Python 2.4.3. I can probably install Python 2.6 on the system if necessary to build. Is the Python requirement just a build requirement or is it (libraries?) also needed on the machine where Qemu is run? We actually ran into this already with libgmodule where the CentOS 5.11 version was too old. We installed archive only libgmodule libraries so that we could build qemu on CentOS 5.11 using the archive libgmodule library and then users could run Qemu on different Centos 5.11 systems without having to install a newer libgmodule on their system.
