Me neither. The warning is pretty unhelpful (in the sense that it does not clearly describe what/where the problem is or how it might be fixed) and seems mostly likely to cause our users who run Ubuntu or Debian to come and complain at us about something that's not under our control. Also, Debian have been shipping Python for years and years and years with nothing obviously being badly wrong with it. thanks -- PMM
