The binary releases for Zope 2.5.1 contain the Python 2.1.3 final release. Users of the Zope source release should note that Python 2.1.3 is now the required platform. Python 2.1.3 includes a fix to an issue that could cause crashes in Zope.

The Linux binary is linked against RedHat 5.2 libraries; users of more recent distributions are encouraged to install the source release instead of the binary release of Zope.
