We are pleased to announce the release of Python 2.4.4 (FINAL), a
bugfix release of Python 2.4, on October 18, 2006.
Important: 2.4.4 includes a security fix (PSF-2006-001) for the
repr() of unicode strings in wide unicode builds (UCS-4) [does not
affect pkgsrc]
Python 2.4 is now in bugfix-only mode; no new features are being
added. At least 80 bugs have been squished since Python 2.4.3,
including a number of bugs and potential bugs found by with the
Coverity and Klocwork static analysis tools. We'd like to offer
our thanks to both these firms for making this available for open
source projects - see their websites if you're interested.

The NIS module is not available in that case.
Call the regen script with RUNSHARED, so that it finds libpython.so,
even in the DESTDIR case.
XXX The call to regen should be moved to the build phase.

only build certain modules if the platform is *not* 64-bit. Correct
the PLIST for those cases. This should fix the build on non-64bit,
non-x86 platforms, e.g. powerpc.

Python 2.4 is now in bugfix-only mode, no new features are being added. At

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented
programming language that combines remarkable power with
very clear syntax. For an introduction to programming in
Python you are referred to the Python Tutorial. The
Python Library Reference documents built-in and standard
types, constants, functions and modules. Finally, the
Python Reference Manual describes the syntax and semantics
of the core language in (perhaps too) much detail.
Python's basic power can be extended with your own modules
written in C or C++. On most systems such modules may be
dynamically loaded. Python is also adaptable as an exten-
sion language for existing applications. See the internal
documentation for hints.
This package has been compiled without support for threads.
