python2.5 install failed

[Joerg van den Hoff]

hi,

under 10.4.11 I did a `port upgrade mercurial'.

which depends on python2.5 and `port' tries to install this (only
python2.4 installed up to now).  now I see the following:

==============================================CUT========================================

--->  Attempting to fetch Python-2.5.2.tar.bz2 from http://www.python.org//ftp/python/2.5.2/

==============================================CUT========================================

after  this  point  compile nevertheless seemingly runs fine
till the final `ranlib' run:

==============================================CUT========================================

        -all_load libpython2.5.a -single_module \

/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed
make: *** [libpython2.5.dylib] Error 1
==============================================CUT========================================

then  some  other stuff (gperf, gettext are fetched/upgraded
and finally I see:

`port' is current and up-to-date.

where's my fault? and if the python2.5 problem is not easily
solved: can I enforce upgrade of  `mercurial'  (assuming  it
will run just fine with python2.4)?
