How about (in another directory): $ tar xzf package.tar.gz $ cd package $ /opt/python/bin/python setup.py build $ sudo /opt/python/bin/python setup.py install This assumes that /opt/python/bin/python is your python3.2 executable. You may want to insert some testing between the 'build' and 'install' steps. Or you could try: $ /opt/python/bin/python -m compileall build/lib That would try to compile all Python files in the subdirectory to byte code. That's likely to fail if the Python code is not valid Python 3. If it compiles, you may still want to do some testing. Hope this helps, -- HansM
That works, but it's probably easier to (depending on your needs): - install easy_install / pip for that python version - use virtualenv -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
