Hi:

We've talked about this before.  It's implemented in fedora.us, 
livna.org, and pyvault.  But, I'm beginning to be weary about an issue 
brought up concerning read-only /usr and tripwire installs with a 
Python putting non-fingerprinted .pyo files under lib/python2.3/.  Has 
anyone ran into this issue and/or can comment on it?  Should we just 
package .pyo anyway?  (This also applies to upcoming Fedora Extras 
packages, too.)

thanks,
