Hi,
along with my distribution SuSE 9.1 came python 2.3.3.
I'd like to update to 2.4 now, is this an easy thing to do or will lots of installed modules refuse to work then?
I installed Python 2.4 under SuSE 9.1 and had no problems so far. If you install it via "./configure;make;make install", python 2.4 will be installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.4 parallel to your existing 2.3 installation under /usr/lib/python2.3.
Is there an easy way to find out what i need to update?Just check out, which version comes up when you call "python" from the shell. If this is version 2.3 you can start 2.4 with "python2.4"
All the installed packages for python2.3 (e.g. PIL, MySQLdb, wxPython,
...) need to be installed for the new version, too.
Thanks for any hints, Torsten.
