Hello,
There is a python security update that came out when 5.6 came out.  I 
have tested it, and it has passed all of my tests. I would feel more 
comfortable letting the general Scientific Linux community test this update.

If all goes well, we plan on pushing out this security errata to all the 
SL5 releases on Wednesday January 26, 2011

To test or update

SL5
-------

           yum --enablerepo=sl-testing update python\*

or you can download rpm's by hand at

http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/testing/i386/python/
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/testing/x86_64/python/

python-2.4.3-43.el5

Thanks
Troy Dawson
