Markus,

this is the same problem here - the problem is with python2.4 that is used
as default
and that does not include ctypes so you need to make symlink in grass to
make sure
it looks for python2.6 (which I have also installed) or there may be some
other solution -
You cannot remove python2.4 because it is used for system management.
I did not have time to get it fully resolved yet.

The problem should go away with the next release of RHEL which is in beta
and
should use python 2.6 (I think),

Helena
