Python is an interpreted, object-oriented programming language, and is
often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme, or Java. You can find an overview
of Python in the documentation and tutorials included in the python-doc
(HTML) or python-doc-pdf (PDF) packages.
If you want to install third party modules using distutils, you need to
install python-devel package.

- update to 2.5c1
- many new features, see http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0356/

http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/section-other.html
(this link is expected to die, so just search for "what's new in 2.5")
- open issues in build process:
- sed'ing out /usr/local/bin/python from files causes build to fail
if not filtered by grep (see %prep section) - might be a bug in sed
- 2.3.3-dirs patch + --enable-shared + --libdir breaks build,
because "-L/usr/lib*/python2.5/config" is added instead of "-L."
Workaround in 2.5c1-dirs-fix, should be replaced soon
- test_file fails in autobuild, but is OK when building manually
- test_nis fails in autobuild, probably due to a misconfiguration
on autobuild servers
