New submission from Ned Deily <n...@acm.org>:
ANALYSIS The script used by the Python installer to update the user's
shell script has a hard-coded version number. This script
is also installed in the "/Applications/Python n.n" directory
as "Update Shell Profile.command". The installer is not
updating the version in the command so the wrong version
of Python may be inserted into the user's shell path.
SOLUTION Ensure that the build major version is auto-updated in both.
APPLIES py3k, 3.0, trunk, 2.6
NOTE Patch is in two parts:
