You won't be able to remove python-2.6 because of dependencies, but you can install python-2.5 and make it the default by using the `update-alternatives` command (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man8/update-alternatives.8.html). It would be something like (after installing python-2.5) - # update-alternatives --config python Regards, BG -- Baishampayan Ghose b.ghose at gmail.com _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
