Anybody else had problems with the recent Python updates?

First python-updater wants to emerge a masked package 
(sys-libs/libcap-1.10-r5). Then I see that a script using the sre module 
no longer works because its been deprecated and is not available anymore.

http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html

this should tell you the major differences between python-2.5.x and 
python-2.4.x ...

also, your python-2.4.x has most likelly not been removed from the system. 
you can access that version by pointing your scripts to 
the /usr/bin/python2.4 binary ...
