I contacted the Debian/Python maintainer, and he plans to incorporate the os.fsync() fix as soon as the sourceforge CVS delay catches up to him. More troublesome are distros like Redhat whose packages are not dynamically updateable. They are sealed in stone once they become part of a release. > Could 2.3.1 be revoked or replaced ASAP?
