Centos 5.2 provides python 2.5.1.

Are you sure?

On an up to date system:

# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.2 (Final)
# rpm -q python
python-2.4.3-21.el5
# rpm -q --provides python | grep -Fw 'python(abi)'
python(abi) = 2.4

You should look at where your friend got this Python from.
Some more testing shows

# python -V
Python 2.4.3

as well. He had me download the 2.5.1 source for Python and compile it. Of course that broke the previously installed rpms, like yum!

I am going to either have to find 2.5 that I can install on Centos (from a Fedora box), but that will most likely break even more things. Or get him to build a Centos box and do the build there...
