installation with the header files and
the <application>distutils</application> module. The minimum
required version is <productname>Python</productname>
2.3. <productname>Python 3</productname> is supported if it's
required version is <productname>Python</productname> 2.3.
For full functionality, a 2.3.x installation must include the
