  When using python-pyrex with python2.6 it gives this warning:
  /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Pyrex/Compiler/Scanning.py:39: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead  import md5

  Reading the Scanning.py and about the hashlib superseding md5 I found
  that this can be fixed changing only two lines (also I think is solved
  in upstream Pyrex 0.9.9)vicm3 at mini:/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-
