Hello,
Install python modules in a linux computer is really easy, it is because
the module is a package of the distribution or because the python
installation is really easy. But, in both situations, you need root
privilegies.

I would like to know how to install modules only for one user, with no
root privilegies. Do you know if it is possible and easy. I would like
to add that i need some modules only for my user and incly for one
progam.

Thanks in advance!

Alfons.

As I just replied to another user (thinking I was responding to this
post), as of Python 2.6 / 3.0, if Python is not restricted to system
directories for security reasons (if sys.flags.no_user_site is non-0),
you may make a directory in your home directory to be searched.  See
    http://docs.python.org/library/site.html
for details on USER_SITE and USER_BASE.

That provides a searched location without having to cook up a custom
PYTHONPATH.
