I do have libxml2-python installed (according to rpm -qa it's
libxml2-python-2.6.6-1). 

Although I have python 2.2.3, directory '/usr/lib/python2.3' also exists. And
it does have libxml2mod files, but '/usr/lib/python2.2' does not. 

If I try to install python2.3 I get a lot of failed dependencies (mostly
redhat-config-* which needs python2.2), but also it says that python2.3 needs
libdb-4.2.so.

I seem to be stuck somehow between python2.2 and 2.3 in a kind of 'failed
dependencies hell'. Some things need python 2.3 to work others need python2.2
to work (notably yum). Is there a way to set things back to the way the way
they were before I installed kdebase3.2? Other than reinstalling everything
that is.

thanks,
