I've been fighting versiontracker.com and macupdate.com for different reasons today and haven't managed to find python 2.4 for the mac or download the other dependencies for soundrts either. The problem with versiontracker.com is once you enter a search term and it fails, the next search term had better be longer than what you originally entered or you're burned. I haven't been able to clear the highlighting of python 2.4 so I could just try a search on python. The macupdate.com page is just totally crazy you get thrown whereever on the page when you come in and the search box is hidden. I'm beginning to think these sites won't be of much use anymore without another operating system to search them and do the downloads then transfer onto the mac. Linux can handle this with lynx because lynx doesn't play the games these web sites do with browsers, no javascript to do it so no ajax either.
