Sorry, but I need more to go on than this. I tried installing python
(2.3.5 is what's available in that version), and I even removed
/usr/local/lib/python2.4, but it didn't help.
# yum
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named yum
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.3.5 (#1, Aug 4 2006, 12:18:32)
[GCC 3.4.5 20051201 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2)]
...
# up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 11, in ?
import rpm
ImportError: No module named rpm
