I would like to install minimal version if python 2.6 on a linux laptop (and no there is not one already installed...i checked) i have no way to access the net with the laptop. So basicly i down loaded the 2.6 source and unpacked it on my other PC. The files weigh in at 51MB and some change. Since transfer from USB on the laptop is painfully slow, and the cdrom is toast, i need to slim down the 2.6 source as much as possible, so it doesn't take 2 days to copy, and besides i don't need all this crap anyway.
I know right away i can lose: -Demo -Doc -Mac -IDLE -PC...??? -PCbuild...??? What else can i dump to slim down to just python-Tkinter only note: i DO want to keep all the built-in modules. And i know this may be asking alot but: where do i put the files before i run "./configure" does it matter what directory there in?? any help here would be great since i am new to linux and have never built a python installation.
