System: NetBSD saruman.ics.muni.cz 1.3.1 NetBSD 1.3.1 (SARUMAN) #0: Sun Apr 19 16:15:24 MEST 1998 dolecek@saruman.ics.muni.cz:/usr/home/dolecek/N131/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/SARUMAN i386


>Description:
	There is new release of Python (version 1.5.1) and a few patches
	already, so the pkg needs to be upgraded.

	Besides that, our Python isn't compiled with readline
	support nor Tcl/Tk support. These are often needed features
	and are trivial to add, as both readline and Tcl/Tk are in pkgsrc
	tree.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
	As there needs to be changed quite a number of pkg files
	(Makefile, files/Setup, pkg/PLIST-mi, some patches/patch-?? deleted),
	I've made new package based on the old one. It can be found on:

		http://www.ics.muni.cz/~dolecek/NetBSD/python151.tar.gz

	Support for readline can be switched off when variable
	PYTHON_NO_READLINE is defined. The same for Tcl/Tk with
	variable PYTHON_NO_TK.
