* status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: In [6ed7d40727f70934df6ab0ac96f5f1c4f01c534f]: {{{ #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="6ed7d40727f70934df6ab0ac96f5f1c4f01c534f" Fixed #18115 - added warning about overlaid install. Setup.py now warns if it detects that Django is being installed over top of a previous installation that was never removed. This should only happen when installing with ``python setup.py install``, as pip automatically uninstalls before installing a new version and easy_install installs as an egg directory. Also generally updated the installation doc. }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/18115#comment:7> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
