Hi, Has anyone managed to find a Python 2.4 rpm binary that can be installed on CentOS4? I'm running CentOS4.6 and an application that I want to use required python 2.4 or greater. All the CentOS/RHEL4 python rpms that I find are all for python 2.3. I can't seem to find anything that works with CentOS4 libs. Thanks! Eric

However, I don't know how maintained it is and the docs for getting it set up correctly were pretty non-existent last time I checked. Maybe someone knows of a "better" way. Ray

I finally found Python 2.4 on python.org (don't know why i couldn't find it the first time I checked there). http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4/rpms/ However, it doesn't upgrade python 2.3, but installs alongside. If I try to upgrade python 2.3 to 2.4, am I just asking for trouble? Tx, Eric
