Thank you for pointing that out. I apologize...I saw this:
http://packages.debian.org/stable/python/python
linked from
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=python
And it didn't occur to me until now to look here:
http://packages.debian.org/stable/python/
Which shows that I can indeed install python 2.4 on stable.
I had seen distributions include version older than their default, but it did
not occur to me that they would include a version newer than the default.
So...is there any move to make 2.4 the default for Etch?
Thanks again!
