scripts should provide a python 2.6 that users can choose. Fedora isn't going to ship one until Fedora 11. Here are geofft's notes from RT #793441 about trying to use the python locker's version:

I've installed zlib.i386, but that seems not to have entirely helped, since the C _hashlib implementation doesn't want to play with Fedora (even if I install openssl.i386), and the pure Python hashlib implementation seems broken in the locker. I think the best solution for right now is to get a build of Python 2.6 that works with scripts (e.g., is 64-bit) in the locker; I'll look into this.

I've contacted python@ to ask them about a 64-bit build and will update the ticket here with their reply.

Now that Nagios doesn't suck, we can actually see the scripts outage caused by the AFS server restart every Sunday morning. This made me realize a few things:

• Our fallback to hodge-podge isn't just an exceptional condition; it happens every week. Thus it's an even worse idea than I thought it was. Viewers will get confused, and search engines may remove pages from their indexes, if they happen to get a 404 error from hodge-podge at the wrong moment.

• Since the heartbeat script is in the scripts locker, the AFS server that serves it (aegisthus) is a single point of failure. Ideally LVS would check multiple heartbeat scripts in lockers on several different AFS servers, and continue routing connections if any of them respond.

Maybe this is because NetworkManager? is installed for some strange reason?
