Hi,
Having problems installing python-simplejson on Scientific Linux release 
6.3
(Carbon) x86_64. 
I get the following error message from "yum localinstall":

Error: Package: python-simplejson-2.0.7-2.el5.x86_64
(/python-simplejson-2.0.7-2.el5.x86_64)
           Requires: python(abi) = 2.4
           Installed: python-2.6.6-29.el6_2.2.x86_64
(@anaconda-ScientificLinux-201208021154.x86_64)
               python(abi) = 2.6
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

This sounds like python-simplejson requires an older version of the pytho
n
package to be installed.

Yet i have had no problems installing this package on the equivalent Orac
le
Linux and Redhat distribution (6.3 x86_64) which both have very similar
python versions installed - python-2.6.6-29.el6_3.3.x86_64.

Is there any way to work around this?
Also is there an easy way to query what specfifc version of python(abi) i
s
installed on a system using rpm or yum?

Thanks,
Darren
