I definitely prefer to compile and altinstall Python or install it somewhere in my home directory, then use virtualenv for all my Django and Python projects.
I'm currently using 2.6.5 and 2.7 for my Django projects, without interfering with any OS X defaults. As has been mentioned you'll need Xcode installed (for gcc), and if you use psycopg2 you'll also need to compile Python for 32-bit instead of the default 64-bit if you're on Snow Leopard. http://shawnmilo.blogspot.com/2009/11/psycopg2-on-snow-leopard.html Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
