because there was no module 'new'. It turns out that in the FreeBSD port of Python 1.5.2 (/usr/ports/lang/python), the Modules/Setup file is substituted with one that turns off Tommy Burnette's 'newmodule'. I have no idea why this should be, or why they didn't make whatever changes they needed as a Patch rather than an absolute overwrite of the file, but however it happened, you need to turn it back on in Modules/Setup and then remake and reinstall. Once I did that, PythonMethods comes up fine and other products (like BannerFolder-0.3) that rely on it, install as well.
As a side note. *Don't* use BannerFolder's counters. You will get the banner copied for each impression :-/ -Petru
