Installing rdiff-backup on RedHat 7.2

[Trevor Harmon]

RedHat 7.2 does not include Python 2.2, which apparently is required by 
rdiff-backup. Unfortunately, I can't find Python 2.2 for RedHat. On 
rpmfind.net, there are many 2.2 packages, but none for RedHat. I tried 
installing the Mandrake package of Python 2.2, and that seemed to work, but 
only after I installed with --nodeps, since it requires libcrypto.so.0, 
libreadline.so.4.2, and libssl.so.0, and I don't know where to get the RPMs 
for these.

So, anyway, rdiff-backup seems to be working now, but I'm worried about my 
installation. Perhaps those missing libs I mentioned might come back to bite 
me later. Anybody know where to get the real (Rawhide?) Python 2.2 RPMs?

Thanks,

Trevor
