Title:
  Critical apache/mod_wsgi failure on upgrade to python 3.1.3

Status in IUS Community Project:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,
  (Centos 5, x86_64)

  Upon a code deployment this evening, apache failed to restart with
  this message:

  Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 55 of
  /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of
  /etc/httpd/conf.d/python31-mod_wsgi.conf: Cannot load
  /etc/httpd/modules/python31-mod_wsgi.so into server:
  /etc/httpd/modules/python31-mod_wsgi.so: undefined symbol:
  PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeLatin1

  After some digging, I noticed that Python had been upgraded to 3.1.3
  just a couple days ago (in my case, via yum-cron):

  May 26 04:15:47 Updated: python31-3.1.3-2.ius.el5.x86_64
  May 26 04:15:47 Updated: python31-libs-3.1.3-2.ius.el5.x86_64

  I suspected that mod_wsgi was built against an outdated api/abi in
  python, so using mock, I rebuilt against python 3.1.3, installed that
  RPM, and everything works fine.

  I've attached my SRPM which increments the release and provides a note about the error.
  If anyone is in need of a temp hot-fix, the RPM can be found at: http://code.appcove.com/python31-mod_wsgi-3.3-2.ius.el5.x86_64.rpm

  Thanks!
