Thanks.


One more question:

How to uninstall using the source package?

the source package doesn't come with `make uninstall`?

Compiling python from soruce vs RPM ?

[howa]

I have compiled python 2.5 from source

i.e.

./configure
make
make install


but when i try to install another package require python, seems it
can't regonize python...

e.g..


/usr/bin/python is needed by xyz

Beginner question

[howa]

Hi,

Just want to try mod_python but it is more complicated then I
expected...

I just followed the tutorial on: 
http://www.modpython.org/live/mod_python-2.7.8/doc-html/inst-testing.html


E.g.

URL = http://www.example.com/mptest.py

It return

ImportError: No module named mptest

1. If I removed addHandler mod_python .py and PythonHandler mptest, I
can see the SOURCE CODE

2. The PythonHandler mod_python.testhandler seems return correct
result, showing I am using python 2.4.3


any idea?

Thanks.
