-DEBIAN NOTES
+PYTHON PACKAGES
- If you installed Python 2.2 using the Debian packages, be sure to
- install the python2.2-dev package, otherwise you won't get
- everything you need.
+ Note that if you installed Python from your Linux distribution's
+ package manager (e.g. .rpms for Redhat-derived systems or .deb for
+ Debian), you must install the `development' package of Python, or
+ you may not get everything you need.
+
+ For example, using Python 2.2 on Debian, you will need to install
+ the python2.2-dev package. On Redhat, you probably need the
+ python2-devel package.
+
+ If you install Python from source, you should be fine.
