What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Install netCDF4-0.9-py2.4-linux-i686.egg using easy_install
2. Try importing netCDF4 (in python2.4) What is the expected output? What do you see instead? File
"/var/www/django/dgw-wsgi/python_modules/lib/python2.4/site-packages/netCDF4-0.9-py2.4-linux-i686.egg/netCDF4_utils.py",
line 424
key = reversed(self).next() if last else iter(self).next()
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? RedHat Linux, python2.4, netCDF4-0.9-py2.4-linux-i686 Please provide any additional information below. Inline conditional statements aren't supported in python 2.4.

Simply changing line 424 to:
if last: key = reversed(self).next()
else: key = iter(self).next()
fixed the problem.
