the issue was locale related like described in #3165. I applied the same
workaround for now, setting the NUMERIC locale to 'C'.

The zipfile.is_zipfile(filename) method solved my problem. I was able

suggestion in mind for the future.

Hi,
I am a college UG student hoping to participate in the SoC. The
foreign language learning activity project interests me. I had a look
at the LingoTeach project [0] and I think that it should be
convertible into a tool that can let children learn new languages and
be used in OLPC deployments.
The kernel building wiki pages
(http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Rebuilding_OLPC_kernel and

to build an OLPC kernel is using Fedora Core 6 or 7. This is quite
limiting for people like me who don't use Fedora regularly as we would

Recently someone mentioned they were trying to improve their python
programming skills.
Attached is a python program than might help. It is called:

If create_module_list
is executed for example like so:

it will produce a file called:

OpenCV has a Python API that uses SWIG. It's in the default fedoro

Good idea, I'll add it to the wiki momentarily.
