All,

You actually don't need to purge 2.5. Just apt-get install python2.4-dev, then switch the symlink while you build. After that you can switch it back (I've found). I've been running Zenoss on Feisty/2.5 for a month or so now with no problems, /except/ during installation.

I wrote up a Feisty installation doc; it's in trunk/inst/docs. http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/browser/trunk/inst/docs/INSTALL_UBUNTU704.txt

I also did:

aptitude purge python2.5

However, when you say "...install both python2.4 and python2.5-dev", did you 
mean python2.4-dev?

If not, there's your problem ;)  Make sure you purge 2.5 and install 
python2.4-dev.

Also, I believe the mysql root password needs to be blank for the install 
(contrary to what the zenoss/ubuntu 6 instructions I was using say).  If you 
have already set a mysql root password, then you should clear it:

mysql -u root -p yourpassword
set password for 'root'@'localhost'=password('');
\q

Then, proceed with the install.

The password can be reset after the zenoss install completes.
