At vpython.org there is now a VPython 5.4 package for Python 2.5, 2.6,
or 2.7 for Linux. A significant change is to include the new vis
folder which permits clean imports of Visual objects.
This package can presumably also be used to build on Python 3.1, but
this would require building Boost libraries for Python 3.1, for which
there may not be Linux packages. One possible approach would be to
leave in place Boost libraries for Python 2.x, build the Boost
libraries from source without installing them, and change the
makefiles to reference these uninstalled libraries.
