>Summary: BerkeleyDB Docs say Python2.1, but Build requires Python2.2

Initial Comment:
>From the readme:

As of this writing (09-Nov-2002) it is recommended that
at least
Python 2.1.3 or Python 2.2.2 be used with these
storages.  Full and
Minimal storages should also work with Python 2.3 (as
yet unreleased).

Yet, when I try to build:

python2.1 setup.py build

It dies:

building '_helper' extension
gcc -g -O2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
-DHAVE_LARGEFILE_SUPPORT -fPIC -I/usr/include/python2.1
-c bsddb3Storage/_helper.c -o
build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/_helper.o
bsddb3Storage/_helper.c:23:2: #error "Must be using at
least Python 2.2"
bsddb3Storage/_helper.c: In function `helper_incr':
bsddb3Storage/_helper.c:44: warning: assignment makes
pointer from integer without a cast
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1


Note the #error "Must be using at least Python 2.2".

Not sure if this is an error in the docs or just a bad
dependency check.  I'd really like to know if this
package is still compatible with python2.1
