Thanks for pursuing this, Paul. You have me curious now.

Let's take a definite example: I have a convenient
Ubuntu 8.04.1
The content of /etc/apt/sources.list is
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy main restricted
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates main restricted
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-security main restricted
I do
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install python2.5
then
# python2.5
Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Dec 11 2006, 21:09:56)
[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright" , "credits" or "license" for more information.
It doesn't seem likely to me that this is the Python 2.5 packaged in
Ubuntu 8.04. It's build timestamp is almost a year and a half before
8.04 was released. Here's the header on my installation:

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 31 2008, 17:28:52)
[GCC 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright" , "credits" or "license" for more information.

This could be a bug in the upgrade from a previous version of Ubuntu
installed on the host or perhaps you have a different Python 2.5 installed
on the machine that's not from the Ubuntu package repository?

Thank you! While I'm certainly not down to the bottom of this mystery,
I have a few clues. First, the important point to make for original
questioner mark is that SQLite(3) is a perfectly reasonable implementation
to use in a Python2.5 context.

I now suspect that my 2.5 packaging has something to do with 64-bit builds;
all my 32-bit Ubuntu servers have Python 2.5.2, while the 64-bit ones are at
Python 2.5.

Strange: my 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04 has Python 2.5.2, with working sqlite:

(mine is a desktop, not a server; I don't know if that should make any
difference).

Dear all, Our database (DB2 Workgroup 7.2 FP12) is constantly under heavy load. Most time CPU usage (1 Pentium3 1Ghz) is more 50% busy. We have 3GB RAM memory Our normal workload is 200-300 dyn.sql/s. The action question is there way to eliminate direct I/O? By definition direct I/O is I/O that bypass bufferpools and used for LONG VARCHAR and LOBs data.

Hi, I have a container that holds objects of same type (user defined class), where each object has multiple attributes. These objects have primary key (similar to a database) formed by combination of two attributes, but I want to support multiple views of data by looking at different combination of attributes and in some cases I might want to combine these. For instance, lets say the class has four attributes a1,a2,a3,a4; and primary key...

Anyone know of an extension that is an in memory database? I dont want to create any files on disk (nor install a database engine) but have an object/variable that points to a database and tables all in memory.

Hi there, I need to extract data from text files (~4 GB) on this data some operations are performed like avg, max, min, group etc. The result is formated and written in some other text files (some KB). I currently think about database tools might be suitable for this. I would just write the import from the text files and ... the tool does the rest. The only problem I can imagine is that this would not be fast enough. But I would give...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
