./lang/python24, Interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language

Branch: pkgsrc-2008Q2, Version: 2.4.5nb2, Package name: python24-2.4.5nb2, Maintainer: recht

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented
programming language that combines remarkable power with
very clear syntax. For an introduction to programming in
Python you are referred to the Python Tutorial. The
Python Library Reference documents built-in and standard
types, constants, functions and modules. Finally, the
Python Reference Manual describes the syntax and semantics
of the core language in (perhaps too) much detail.

Python's basic power can be extended with your own modules
written in C or C++. On most systems such modules may be
dynamically loaded. Python is also adaptable as an exten-
sion language for existing applications. See the internal
documentation for hints.

            pkgsrc/lang/python24/patches: patch-bm

    Log message:
    Add a patch from the upstream 2.5 branch (svn rev.63883) to fix an
    integer overflow in the vsnprintf replacement function.
    This is likely not a real problem, and the patch wasn't pulled to
    the upstream 2.4 branch, but so we can formally declare our 2.4
    as not vulnerable now.
