Category: Installation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Blubb Fallo (blubbfallo) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: installer ignores changed installation directory Initial Comment: concerning python-2.4.1.msi at win2000 sp4 After having spent quite some time at python.org to find out if I had to remove 2.4 before installing 2.4.1 (without any success, btw) I dared to start overinstalling. 1. Unfortunately, I didn't recognize that the suggested directory was different from where I wanted Python to stay in. Now, there seems to be no way back except completele un- and reinstalling: 2. I run the installer again and selected "change Python 2.4.1", then clicked "back", choosing the right directory, then went on to "next" and on, but my directory choice was ignored. 3. Finally, I run the installer at commandline, specifying TARGETDIR, chose the "change Python 2.4.1" radiobutton ... and again, Python was reinstalled as if TARGETDIR wasn't given. Paths containing spaces are not involved. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1207466&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
