My Kindle PW1 got OTA updated to firmware 5.4.4.2. I went to install the python and screensaver packages, using Update_python_0.10.N_install_touch_pw.bin and Update_linkss_0.17.N_install_touch_pw.bin but the python one won't install. (The linkss one installs OK but has no effect, presumably it needs the python one to work first.) It fails with error 006. The relevant error in the log seems to be:

140521:095536 system: I python:update:generating bytecode...:
140521:095536 system: C python:update:code=126:failed to generate python bytecode for the standard lib

Any ideas how I can fix this please? Thanks!
