[CentOS] compiling python

2012-05-25 Thread Rita
Hello,

I would like to compile python 2.7.3 for centos and was wondering if there
were any instructions I should follow. I would like to keep the standard
python the way it is. I would like to compile to /opt. Any tips or ideas
would be much appreciated.

Read the file README from the python tar.gz file.
Use --prefix.
