Installing Python3 took quite a while. What caused this ?
- Python would not build because of missing tkinter + a problem with dbm
- I had two freezes of Pardus 2008.2 Canis aureus with the new KDE 4.2.0 (not sure yet, what caused this - one was during the “make test” - I hope my HD is still ok)
- the “make test” 
But it works now - the first Hello world in new syntax:
./python3.0
Python 3.0 (r30:67503, Feb 1 2009, 21:41:15)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.
>>> print(’Hello world’)
