No problem :)

The distutils based setup.py files used to generate the separate
pygobject/pygtk installers (which are then used to create the aio
installer) dropped support for Python versions older than 2.6 in
the following commits (a couple of weeks before I started contributing):
     - pygobject:  
http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/commit/?id=33b59fd7437009b6c3ed43412e171d2cc91ee317
     - pygtk:  
http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygtk/commit/?id=e89fa3ce5a99aa2ed8ada7d3d545770357d52d45

The interesting part is that the autotools' configure.ac files list
the following minimum versions:
     - pygobject: m4_define(python_min_ver, 2.5.2)
     - pygtk: AM_PATH_PYTHON(2.3.5)

So it might be possible to restore Python 2.5 support on windows. I'll add
your request to my already overly large todo list. So no promises on when
i'll have time to look into it...

Off course, contributions are always more than welcome :)

Regards,
Dieter
