The last bugfix release of the Python 2.4 series, which started with 2.4.0, released on 2004-11-30. Python 2.5 was released on 2006-09-19.

Python is a remarkably powerful dynamic programming language that is used in a wide variety of application domains. Some of its key distinguishing features include: clear, readable syntax; strong introspection capabilities; intuitive object orientation; natural expression of procedural code; full modularity, supporting hierarchical packages; exception-based error handling; and very high level dynamic data types.

PP is a python module which provides mechanism for parallel execution of python code on SMP (systems with multiple processors or cores) and clusters (computers connected via network).

Py is a Python library for file name parsing, .ini file parsing, I/O, code introspection, and logging.

Six is a Python 2 and 3 compatibility library. It provides utility functions for smoothing over the differences between the Python versions with the goal of writing Python code that is compatible on both Python versions. Six supports every Python version since 2.5. It is contained in only one Python file, so it can be easily copied into your project.

Avro is a serialization and RPC framework.

Nose extends the unittest library to make testing easier.

python-dbus provides bindings for libdbus, the reference implementation of D-Bus.

The Python Imaging Library (PIL) adds image processing capabilities to the Python interpreter.

The lxml XML toolkit is a Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt.

This package provides a pathlib-compatible Zipfile object wrapper. It provides a backport of the Path object.

rpy2 is a redesign and rewrite of rpy. It is providing a low-level interface to R from Python, a proposed high-level interface, including wrappers to graphical libraries, as well as R-like structures and functions.

Pyx is a Python package for the generation of PostScript, PDF, and SVG files. It combines an abstraction of the PostScript drawing model with a TeX/LaTeX interface. Complex tasks like 2d and 3d plots in publication-ready quality are built out of these primitives.

Mock is a library for testing in Python. It allows you to replace parts of your system under test with mock objects and make assertions about how they have been used. This library is now part of Python (since Python 3.3), available via the unittest.mock module.

MMTK is a library for molecular simulations with an emphasis on biomolecules. It provides widely used methods such as Molecular Dynamics and normal mode analysis, but also basic routines for implementing new methods for simulation and analysis. The library is currently not actively maintained and works only with Python 2 and NumPy < 1.9.

Pyro is a Distributed Object Technology system written in Python that is designed to be easy to use. It resembles Java's Remote Method Invocation (RMI). It has less similarity to CORBA, which is a system and language independent Distributed Object Technology and has much more to offer than Pyro or RMI. Pyro 3.x is no longer maintained. New projects should use Pyro4 instead, which is the new Pyro version that is actively developed.

Nose extends the unittest library to make testing easier.

The SciPy library is one of the core packages that make up the SciPy stack. It provides many user-friendly and efficient numerical routines such as routines for numerical integration and optimization.

Pysam is a Python module for reading and manipulating files in the SAM/BAM format. Pysam is a lightweight wrapper of the SAMtools C API. It also includes an interface for tabix.
