- @marcoarment Congrats - it's a hard rule to follow, but I've almost never needed 'that shot that wasn't really good enough to show' later.
- I really hate the surge of work/anger that comes from a colo-failure - especially when it's the colo's fault.
- @shelbygrant what sort are you looking for?
- Just danced with Hollee to Robert Picardo singing "Swinging on a Star" on the roof of the Ovitt. I'm giddy. http://tweetphoto.com/35020940
- Are there going to be 70s revival dinner clubs / rock shows in 20 years? The 40s/50s is kind of hip now - are we going to be discoing soon?

- Cicada Club in my WWII Army Air Corps uniform. Robert Picardo just sang and Bill Nye(!) is here. Music, drinks, Hollee, Roselin and Joy :)

Yum didn’t like that repo file.

Trying other mirror.

Will this install parallel to python 2.4 or will it overwrite?

Great job! Lack of decent (well, I mean recent) version of Python was a major impediment preventig us to move to RHEL/CentOS.
We were just waiting for RHEL6 to come out … RHEL5 has been around for a while now.
Thanks to your package hopefully we will be able to switch to CentOS a bit sooner!

Since these RPMs are i386 only is there any chance you would put your spec file up somewhere so that those of us running 64bit setups don’t have to repeat your work?
thx.

Parallel.

There’s an SRPM installed, the spec file is included. If you would like to share the x86_64 rpms, I’ll be happy to include them.

Building x86_64 from the SRPMS.
What was the hack you used to get past autoconf-2.59?
(build needs >=autoconf-2.61)
thanks much.

Which SRPMS are you using? The 2.62 ones aren’t mine – the 2.6 ones don’t have the version requirement.
March 23rd, 2010 on 4:25 pm
Thanks for this. Much appreciated.
I too am after the 64bit version of Python2.6 and will try a rebuild on the SRPM.
Thanks again!

Is there a SRPM for the python26-libs? I need a 64bit version.
Or do you have the spec file for the libs rpm?
Thanks

Your wordpress page at http://www.geekymedia.com/uncategorized/rhel5-centos-5-python-2-62-rpms/ has been spam-hacked, and is nearly unreadable. Thought you’d want to know.
