It's not easy to have both python and python 2.3 coexist on RedHat 9. Problem is with freevo expecting python to be called 'python' and not python2.3 (as found in the python.org RPMs). Yes, you'll have to recompile all python packages, and somehow tell them to place it under /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages (for use with python2.3) instead of defaulting it to the python2.2 directory. It'd be easier to manage if you upgrade to FC2 which comes with python 2.3 by default.
