If relevant, please answer to the following questions:
1. What version of Python(x,y) have you installed? 2.6.6.2

2. Which components have you installed (Python(x,y) installer: component
page):
    a. Have you selected the "Recommended" component selection? YES
    b. Have you selected the "Full" component selection?
c. Have you selected manually plugins in the component list? What
plugins? don't remember
3. Have you selected the option "Customize installation directories"?
b. No
4. If the answer to 3. is yes, what installation directories have you
chosen?
5. Where did you install Python(x,y) itself?
a. default path

6. Have you installed Python(x,y):
    b. For "All users"
7. What is your operating system?
a. Windows XP

8. When you installed Python(x,y), were you logged in as :
b. an administrator of the machine

9. If you are using Windows Vista, have you installed Python(x,y):

10. Regarding installed softwares on your machine, how did you clean your
machine before installing Python(x,y) (multiple answers are possible):
    a. you didn't do anything, you installed Python(x,y) directly on your machine without precaution. YES this was the first install of python, and since this day I upgraded all versions with patches

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I'm affraid to upgrade to 2.7 version because:

- There is no patch to upgrade to 2.7 version from 2.6.6.2
- I don't know how to do. Do I need to uninstall python(xy) first ?
- I don't know if all my librairies are python 2.7 compatibles

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

DO YOU PLANE TO MAINTAIN PYTHONXY FOR PYTHON 2.6 ? 

For all above reasons I only upgraded  guidata to 1.4 (wich I use a lot). 
disthelpers module completly changed since version 1.3, but it seems to be 
unachieved (and maybe bugued on windows cf. my issues in guidata web page) :

Please provide any additional information below.

1. That is correct. All packages were updated.
2. Uninstall Python(xy) and then install 2.7.2.1

We have no plans to maintain 2.6.
