Ugh, this definitely appears to affect RHEL5 (and by extension CentOS5) because RHEL5 uses Python 2.4. In my case I can fairly easily switch to hmac-sha224 but that may or may not be possible for others. Is there a way to fix this from dnspython or do we need to file a bug with RedHat to get their version of Python patched? -- Jeff Ollie
