[Yum-devel] recompiling yum with new openssl

[Gellatly, Anna]

So ... what you're saying is that if I am to recompile a new python
version with my openssl libraries and install that I will need to
re-compile urlgrabber, yum modules, sqlite and others with the new
version of python being deployed so that they use the appropriate
version of python?
Am I getting it?

you can start yum with whatever ver of python you want but you want to 
tread carefully here. Yum needs a python with access to the rpm module, 
urlgrabber, the yum modules, sqlite and others.

So if you're just installing a new version of python you may find none
of 
the modules yum needs are available in that python's syspath.
