I just ended up getting the >>> prompt with no additional feedback. I 
assume that it was satisfied with the import command. This is with 
gnome-python2-2.6.0-3
This is running on a laptop. It has been awhile since I ran prelink. 
Maybe prelink needs to be run after installing new python applications, 
I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the idea.
