RE: Python 2.4 ERROR: cvs2svn uses the anydbm package Python 2.6 ImportError: No module named _md5

Yes, it resolved the md5 issue on Python 2.6.  

I didn't find a resolution for the anydbm issue on Python 2.4 but as I have
2.6 working now I won't be looking into that any more.

Thanks.

I assume that openssl was needed for hashlib / md5, right?  Or did the
installation of openssl help with the problem with gdbm, too?

Sure.  Best would be if you would submit a patch to improve the cvs2svn
documentation as you suggest.

Thanks,
