In case my previous reply was not clear, I would like to shortly
repeat here that I have installed ASK 2.5.0 like this on my debian
stable (woody) machine simply like this:

# apt-get remove python (probably NOT needed)
# apt-get install python2.2
# dpkg -i ask_2.5.0-1_all.deb

that's all.

I did not try 2.4.1.deb


Marco: time for a 2.5.1 release ? Please stop trying to fix ALL bugs,
just give us some bugfixes already today :-)
