I am using SuSE 8.1 as well and haven't seen the described behaviour so 
far. Would it be possible for you, to send me one of your scripts that 
fails to run. The only difference I can see from your description is, 
that I don't have the python-nothreads-2.2.1-45 package installed. It 
could be possible, that your Python tries to execute a script 
compiled/optimized with one version with the other one. At the moment I 
don't have any other clue.

Hans-Peter, what do you mean by that. I am not aware of any special path 
resolving in eric (but maybe that's deep in the old code that I haven't 
touched).
