I'm new to Linux and am trying to set up Python / Django on my machine! I installed Python 3.3 from the source file and it was compiled into /usr/local/bin.
I have a Fedora virtual machine. It comes with Python pre-installed. I've read that it's not a good idea to uninstall it. I want to install a different version of Python, Enthought Python. Should I try to uninstall the existing Python installation and how would I do that? Should I instead install Enthought Python to a new directory?
I downloaded python 3.3.0 which is latest version and i finished installing
now I want to run it in my centOS linux but when i type it in console "python" , python 2.7.0 which is bundled with os installation runs.
how can i change it to run 3?
I vaguely feel that i have to change the code about path in bin folder or something

I need newer Python so I downloaded .tar.gz from the site, unpacked, run ./configure; make; make altinstall. I had then separate Python 2.7 and default 2.5 and all worked fine.
But recently I needed to recompile Python with new libraries and instead of make altinstall I run make install. That replaced CentOS Python 2.5 with 2.7.
I'm having a problem with urllib, urllib2 and requests, three python libraries.
I use Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS and python 2.6.5 (we can use with python) (but I had installed manually, after the problem, python 2.5.6 and python 2.7, respectively python2.5, python2.7).
Initially my packages worked fine, but in some point, maybe updating the kernel, not sure, nothing works.
The strange that is if I run
Dear all,
I need to install Python 2.6 on a 12.04 server that must run some old software. I've managed to install the main packages and change the default version following the instructions in this thread.
But beyond these I need to install a few particular python packages: magic and lxml. I tried to install them with easy_install but invariably run into errors.
