[omniORB] omniNames problem

I recompiled omniORB from sources every time (under RedHat and Mandrake).
Python was up/downgraded as rpm binary package.

Is it possible that IDL compiler generates different code when using
different versions of Python?

When it works, are you using an omniORB compiled from source or are
you using our binaries?

As I said before, Python has absolutely nothing to do with omniNames.
Python is only required by the IDL compiler. Once omniNames is
compiled, you can delete Python altogether and omniNames will still
run.

I can only assume that the compiler you used to build omniORB and
omniNames was broken.

Cheers,

Duncan.
