I am not really sure, but it seems that the
/usr/lib/wxPython-2.6.1.0-gtk2-unicode/lib/
directory contains duplicate filenames in the Python 2.3 and 2.4.
In this case, I believe that I can uninstall the wx 2.3 package. I would be very interested in reading any documentation that addresses how to maintain multiple versions.

I'd be inclined to un-install the python2.3 version prior to installing
the python2.4 version
Something like
rpm -e wxPython2.6-gtk2-unicode-2.6.1.0-fc2_py2.3
rpm has changed since I was mezmorized by the options.
If you need both versions, it's possible that installing from source
(srpm) may avoid the issue.

I've been distanced from linux for a while, since my linux HD crashed on me 
I have to support windows, so I live in that world now...
The issue is that the library stored in /usr/lib/wxPython-2.6.1.0-gtk2-unicode/lib is probably the same in both distributions. I don't think the wxLibrary has any specific python bindings, but I'm not sure about this.
Python 2.4 is newer and improved, the simpler solution is to uninstall the conflicting rpm.
You could try the --force option while installing the newer version with rpm would not likely cause great pain, but then you have an overlap which might bite you should you choose to uninstall the 2.3 version at a later time.
Maintaining two installations isn't terribly difficult, but it is an exercise that is better avoided when possible.
