Description:
fetchmail should be rebuild with python 2.6:

$ pacman -Ql fetchmail | grep python
fetchmail /usr/lib/python2.5/
fetchmail /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/
fetchmail /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/fetchmailconf.py
fetchmail /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/fetchmailconf.pyc
fetchmail /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/fetchmailconf.pyo

Also fetchmail post_install() said:
"If you run fetchmail as a daemon and not a cron job
then 'chown fetchmail /etc/fetchmailrc'"

but fetchmail doesn't provide a fetchmailrc, it use /usr/bin/fetchmailconf to help user to create a fetchmail configuration file in his home directory (or anywhere he want)

I attached my pkgbuild for 6.3.9 version.

Additional info:
* fetchmail 6.3.8

Steps to reproduce:
pacman -S fetchmail
   PKGBUILD (1 KiB)
This task depends upon

Is it actually broken? "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages" is added to python-2.6's site path so this should be fine.
