Hi, Official Python distro is very stable, with release cycle of around 1 year. However, to include the new version of SQLite, which has a much shorter release cycle, one has to rebuild the main Python distribution (to compile with the new SQLite headers) - this is from Python docs. Therefore, inclusion of PySQLite in Python-2.5.1 distro effectively shrinks the Python release cycle to that of SQLite. I would not have minded, except that we have many workstations and pretty arcane deployment procedure, making frequent redeployment of Python quite painful. Has anyone considered this problem and maybe a work-around?
Many thanks in advance, Mikhail -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
