Hi list,
I've just switched back my dev box from OS X to Debian.
(I was used to be a Debian users but away from Debian for about 3 or
more years.)

OS X has some alternative to APT, like Fink and MacPorts
but they are not o

Seriously. Upgrading within X works just fine.

but much of it is crap.]
Hi,
I've just installed etch and python2.4 and 2.5 pakcage there.
By default python bin in /usr/bin are linked to 2.4's
but I like to switch them to 2.5.
of course I could do this manually
but that's a bit boring thing to do.
Is there any way of dong this job Debian way?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Mark.
That works fine. The only thing when I call the opera from the command
line, it has following errors although it still works. Should I
concern that error messages or not?
