Regards !

"pass" is a Python reserved keyword so you can't use it as a
variable !

This keywork can be used to conserve python indentation but you have
nothing especially to do.

pass is a python keyword. You'll need a different name for the variable.

pass is a keyword, as in:

def f ():
pass

What makes you think it's an error with md5? As you can see, md5 works
fine. The error message tells you the problem occurs *before* the call to
md5.new().

File "<stdin>", line 1
pass = 45
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


As others have told you, it's a problem with pass, which is a statement
and reserved word.

python
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Aug 21 2009, 12:22:21)

hashlib instead
Why ?

As the message says: the md5 module is deprecated, and you should use
the hashlib module instead. I believe md5 is deprecated from Python
2.6 onwards, which may be why you have not seen this message before
(Fedora 12 is the first Fedora to ship with Python 2.6).

When this gets in the way (package builds, etc.,) you can get rid of it by
invoking Python with a command line argument:

python -Wignore:eprecationWarning
