>Release:        FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT i386
>Organization:
Virtual Estates, Inc.
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #3: Tue Jul 29 14:49:03 EDT 2003

>Description:

	The script expects Python to print ``1'' for truth, but the
	new Python prints ``True''. The new script (attached) simply
	uses Python and should execute properly with any version.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install python-devel and try to install py-xml.

>Fix:

Instead of a diff, here is the entire new pkg-req -- it is smaller, than
the diff would've been.

#!/bin/sh

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

if [ "x$1" = "xINSTALL" -o "x$2" = "xINSTALL" ]; then
	exec python /dev/stdin << EOFSCRIPT

import sys, string

required = "2.0"

if string.split(sys.version)[0] < required:
	print "-----------------------------------------------------------"
	print "PyXML requires Python version " + required + " or greater -"
	print "  please update your Python installation before proceeding."
	print "-----------------------------------------------------------"
	sys.exit(1)
EOFSCRIPT
