>Description:
On FreeBSD python 2.4 has a PLIST problem:
 http://distfiles.scode.org/bulk-build/reports/20061004.2238/lang/python24/.broken.html

Python's configure.in has an explicit special case for FreeBSD where it cuts of the second component of the SO version. I have no idea what the reason for this is, but the FreeBSD port leaves it as is


>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
This patch:

   http://distfiles.scode.org/pkgsrc/py24-so.diff

Uses PLIST_SUBST to rectify the PLIST on FreeBSD.
