The Universal-MacPython-2.4.3-2006-04-07.dmg seems to kludge
terminal's shell. We installed it on two systems running 10.4.6, both
systems had a previous version of python on them (2.3.5). On one system
the shell broke to where it would not run UNIX commands, even after a
re-boot. Under both systems the following shell errors occurred right
after install. The error appears when you first initiate the shell, or change
shells.

glacier-wl:~ support$ csh
csh: Badly placed ()'s.

sh-2.05b$ tcsh
tcsh: Badly placed ()'s.

Addendum: Both systems where PPC G4 systems, and not Intel chipsets.

Assigned to me because I'm at fault here.

This seems to be a bug in one of the postinstall scripts, I'll have a look. Sorry
about the inconvenience.

This is now fixed in the trunk, and will be fixed in the next release of the
universal build as well.
