[CentOS] Re: Python 2.4 on CentOS4?

Hi,

Has anyone managed to find a Python 2.4 rpm binary that can be installed on CentOS4? I'm running CentOS4.6 and an application that I want to use required python 2.4 or greater. All the CentOS/RHEL4 python rpms that I find are all for python 2.3. I can't seem to find anything that works with CentOS4 libs.

Ok - I may have been a little quick to post this. I finally found Python 2.4 on python.org (don't know why i couldn't find it the first time I checked there). http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4/rpms/

However, it doesn't upgrade python 2.3, but installs alongside.

If I try to upgrade python 2.3 to 2.4, am I just asking for trouble?

Tx,

Eric
