fedora core 4 and python 2.4.2

Just downloaded a python 2.4.2 source RPM. I tried to rebuild it using rpmbuild --rebuild command. It failed. It complained about a missing db 4.2 library.

After a quick search, I found out that there is no db 4.2 library in Fedora Core 4. It was shipped with db 4.3.

I solved it by making a db 4.2 symlink pointed to db 4.3 library file(the .so file).
