Several changes have been made to Python 2.4 and 2.5 to support
AMD64-Linux better, and not all of these changes have been
incorporated into Python 2.3, as this software is no longer
maintained.
As others have said: you should really try to use the python 2.4
that comes with the operating

Is there anything special I have to care about or is installing Python
on a 64 Bit OS just as easy as installing it on a 32-Bit OS?

be out in the next 24 hours), and I'd recommend that over the older

If by 24 hours you mean 20 minutes ago, this is
