Hi folks, In order to test my own modules with various python versions I've installed python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2. The original installation on my fedora box was 2.6 and all 3rd party modules so far were installed under /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages. Since now the executable 'python' points to python 2.7 and lot of programs have #!/usr/bin/env python at the top, these programs try to use 2.7. But there are no 3rd party modules installed for 2.7 so programs that need these do not run. Of course I can just replace #!/usr/bin/env python with #!/usr/bin/env python2.6 but doing so for all programs would be a pain.
Also, once I have a 3rd party module installed in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages I wouldn't want to copy all of these to /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages (assuming they are compatible with pythonX.Y). What would be the most common practice for having a single location for 3rd party modules and all python versions could have access to them?
