The test *package* is much older than Python 2.4, but many Python distros exclude it from their default configuration. Perhaps there is a way to add it back; on many Linux-based systems running apt-get or yum with the appropriate arguments is all it takes. Sorry, I can't help you with the appropriate parameters, since every distro does it differently.
