Except no one installs ActiveState. For most, most of the market, the RedHat supplied version of python is python.


Does RedHat still have that much of a market share in linux to demand such? I guess I am out of the loop, but I hear way more about ubuntu these days than RedHat...


The US Govt can use Redhat, but not Ubuntu (Ubuntu hasn't been Common Criteria / EAL tested). That's a pretty huge market right there.


If you want to target "Linux" generically then stock Red Hat is your safest bet. I don't know anyone with 10,000 Ubuntu boxes in a datacentre.
