mod_wsgi

I have recently acquired mod_wsgi commit permissions and am going 
through some of the open bugs for it on bugzilla.  According to [1], and 
from my testing, mod_wsgi and mod_python conflict resulting in apache 
segfaulting.  The policy currently states that no packages in EPEL may 
conflict with a package from Red Hat Base.  Technically, mod_wsgi and 
mod_python conflict with each other, but mod_python is optional.

I don't think that mod_wsgi should be pulled from EPEL because it is 
already built for RHEL5 and it is usable as long as mod_python is 
disabled in apache.

I am seeking guidance on whether I should include a Conflicts line in 
the spec file.

Additionally, the newest version of mod_wsgi (3.1) does not conflict 
with the newest version of mod_python (3.3.1).  Should I update mod_wsgi 
to 3.1 with the hopes that Red Hat releases a newer version of 
mod_python for EL5?

Let me know if you have any questions and I appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,
-josh
