Re: What is the best way to upgrade python?

Have you tried to upgrade the current python RPM? rpm -Uvh You can also build from source. Once you get Python 2.4 up and running I am pretty sure you can do a symbolic link on the python 2.3 application (either in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin) and point it to the 2.4 python file. On 8 Mar 2007

I'm guessing there is an easy way to do this but I keep going around in circles in the documentation. I have a time stamp that looks like this (corresponding to UTC time): start_time = '2007-03-13T15:00:00Z' I want to convert it to my local time. start_time = time.mktime(time.strptime(start_t

Yeah, sorry I should have added more data. You will need to go to rhn.redhat.com and either download the RPM or get the url. So you would do: (1) download the rpm to your home directory rpm -Uvh nameOfRPM or (2) grab the url rpm -Uvh http://urlOfRPM either way should update your python. Dont
