Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated Cygwin Package: python-2.4-1

I have updated the version of Python to 2.4-1.  The tarballs should be
available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly.

The following is the only notable change since the previous release:
    o upgrade to Python 2.4

Are the modules binary compatible with 2.3 so that the site-packages (manually installed extensions) can be treated with a similar hack as with perl-5.8.x?


  rename libpython2.3.dll in the site-packages/*.dll,
  copy it over to the new path and
  delete the pyc files to force recompilation.

Of course it is recommended to re-install all of them.
I just wanted to know, how expensive the upgrade will be.
