You want to get rid of "python1.5-base" and instead install
"python1.5". Many months ago the organization of the python packages
changed so that multiple versions can be installed side-by-side. You
can have "python1.5", "python2.1" and "python2.2" installed
simultaneously.

For society, it's probably a good thing that engineers value function
over appearance. For example, you wouldn't want engineers to build
nuclear power plants that only _look_ like they would keep all the
radiation inside.
