okay, the segfaulting when I was testing my application on another
machine was because I didn't have FAM installed. Therefore, I changed
the description to double free or corrupt.

** Summary changed:

- using PyMem_DEL() instead of PyObject_FREE() causes python 2.5 to segfault
+ using PyMem_DEL() instead of PyObject_FREE() causes python 2.5 to double free 
or corrupt

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: python-fam
  
  Please read:

  Ubuntu Release: 7.04

  Anybody running Python 2.5 and python-fam release or package
  1.1.1-2.1build1 or lower will experience problems, specifically

  ./Webware-0.9.3/bin/MakeAppWorkDir.py Crash
  cd Crash
  open Configs/AppServer.config for editing
  change "AutoReload = False" to "AutoReload = True"
  run ./AppServer
