eventual troubles. Exit status: 0 if okay, 1 if not okay. Useful for
running from configure.ac.

** You seem to be using an old version of Python. **

** Note that if you have more than one Python **
** installed on your system, you can specify the **
** --with-python configuration option to choose **
** a specific (e.g. non system wide) Python binary. **
** **
** We strongly recommend you to run CDSware with **
** at least Python %s. Some older versions **
** were known to be problematic with respect to **
** encodings and mod_python, see for example **
** <http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2002-October/002607.html>.
** **
** Note that some operating systems (such as Debian) **
** may backport important bugfixes to older Python **
** releases, so your concrete Python installation **
** may be immune to these problems already. **
** If you are not sure, you may continue the CDSware **
** installation now and recall that in case of **
** problems you may need to upgrade Python and **
** reinstall CDSware from scratch. **
