The test package is much older than Python 2.4, but many Python distros exclude it from their default configuration. Perhaps there is a way to add it back; on many Linux-based systems running apt-get or yum with the appropriate arguments is all it takes. Sorry, I can't help you with the appropriate parameters, since every distro does it differently.

Good to know, thanks for the information. I didn't know that python-tests were treated as a separate package on certain platforms. As replacement I'll use unittest.main() for running tests and a static string defined by me instead of test.test_support.TESTFN.
