Hi Mailinglist,
> it looks like os.path.realpath was introduced in python2.2.
How do I install python2.2 the debian way ? On my PC I got the deb's: python (dummy), python2.1 and python2.2 installed
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/python* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2002-12-17 14:10 /usr/bin/python -> python2.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 511K 2002-09-07 17:36 /usr/bin/python2.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 726K 2002-09-07 16:38 /usr/bin/python2.2
The programm "dpkg-reconfigure" has no effekt, it run a few seconds and then stop without any output. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$dpkg-reconfigure --frontend Dialog --force python [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$dpkg-reconfigure --frontend dialog --force python2.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$dpkg-reconfigure --frontend dialog --force python2.2
All 3 packages have (nearly) the same content, it would be possible, to change all symbolic links (bin, man, etc.) and the paths and env variables. But it's lots of work and a really "unclean" solution.
How does the "debian way" (if it exists) looks like to do this?
Are there any other solutions, suggestions?
Thanks and regards Emal
