I have a fedora box and just installed python 2.6.1 along with 2.5.2, so here's my issue, if I removed the "systems" garbage RPM it would uninstall all the other crap along with it, so I went ahead and trunked in and ./configure, build && build install and built python 2.6.1 along with this. However how can I stipulate that I want the WHOLE system to use Python 2.6.1 rather than 2.5.2? I know there is something to do with PATH, which I tried under my /root/.cshrc file, but to no avail it didn't work. So is there something special I should do with getting the system to pick up this directy:
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/ Which the v2.6 binary is in: /usr/local/bin/python.2.6 Rather than this: /usr/lib64/python2.5/ Which the v2.5 binary is in: /usr/bin/python Perhaps it's Fedora not picking it up? Here's my server's build: # uname -rm 2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.x86_64 x86_64 I've gone through and tried to figure it out, to no avail, so if anyone is pretty familiar with this, because I do NOT want to stipulate which binary to use in all my source files... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
