Package: python2.3
Version: 2.3.5-4
Severity: normal

After switching an install from an k7 chipset to a celeron (after
hardware failure), ipython crashed during normal usage.  A fresh install
of python2.4 and python2.4-ipython did not have this problem.  I was
able to fix this by doing dpkg-reconfigure python2.3.  As best I can
figure, the install time compilation of python modules includes
architecture specific optimization that causes a crash if you switch
chipsets.  Unfortunately, I didn't delve to deeply into the problem
before fixing it, so I can't be *sure* of the cause, and I don't have a
different chipset available to reproduce the problem.
