I didn't know this. I don't know enough about bsddb or how Python/SpamBayes uses it to know whether any problems it has effects or not, either, though. > In Python 2.3.4 (that's what I've got installed): > > >>> import bsddb > >>> bsddb._db.version() > (4, 1, 25) > >>> bsddb._db.DB_VERSION_STRING > 'Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.1.25: (December 19, 2002)' > >>> Python 2.4 has 4.2: Python 2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 11:49:19) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import bsddb >>> bsddb._db.version() (4, 2, 52) >>> bsddb._db.DB_VERSION_STRING 'Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.2.52: (December 3, 2003)' So if the builds stay with 2.4*, we'll also get the improved bsddb, which might help. * I'll leave 1.0.3 with 2.4 - if people want 2.3, then there's 1.0.1 or the source. I'd like 1.1a1 to use 2.4, but also want to include the Zope stuff necessary for ZODBStorage, and there isn't a 2.4 binary for that yet AFAIK. Not sure what I'll do about that yet (but I ought to hurry up and figure it out). =Tony.Meyer _______________________________________________ spambayes-dev mailing list spambayes-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes-dev
