Hello All, In the 3.4 archive python2.3 is missing a key library (readline.so):

ImportError: No module named readline Note that the module /usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/readline.so _is_ there in the i386 version of the package. Should this be listed as a bug in the python2.3 package itself? Scott PS: Thanks for all of your hard work! Things are working amazingly well! -- Scott M.
