Install python 2.6 in CentOS
- by tehryan
I have a shell that runs CentOS
For a project I'm doing I need python 2.5+ but centOS is pretty dependent on 2.4
From what I've read a number of things will break if you upgrade to 2.5
I wan't to install 2.5 separately from 2.4 but I'm not sure how to do it. So far I've downloaded the source tarball, untarred it and did a ./configure --prefix=/opt which is where I want it to end up. can I now just make, make install ? or is there more?
