If you're using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.x (I'm guessing 5.2, not 2.5), you might want to try using the 1.5.6 RPM I maintain in EPEL.
See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL for details on how to get it set up. I should warn you that there's one catch: MySQL doesn't work with this version because RHEL's copy of python-MySQL is too old (this is going to be fixed in RHEL 5.8). But this RPM should make it easier to get up and running on RHEL 5.
