Does the original error mean anything is broken, or that there is anything I need to do? Are you saying the warning about pysupport.py: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation is irrelevant? Or that that is something shipped with python 2.5? BTW I'm also getting messages like Setting up python2.5-minimal (2.5-5) ... Linking and byte-compiling packages for runtime python2.5... INFO: using unsupported version '/usr/bin/python2.5' in that upgrade and since, with various packages (e.g., reportbug). The significance is unclear to me, though I take it from INFO that it's not a big deal. -- Ross Boylan wk: (415) 514-8146 185 Berry St #5700 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dept of Epidemiology and Biostatistics fax: (415) 514-8150 University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, CA 94107-1739 hm: (415) 550-1062
