I've updated python since we have been talking, so now it is version
2.5.  I have also upgraded rpm in the past.

[root at www Python-2.5]# python --version
Python 2.5
[root at www Python-2.5]# rpm --version
RPM version 4.1.1
[root at www Python-2.5]# rpm -q rpm-python yum
rpm-python-4.0.4-7x.18
yum-2.0.8-1
