Holiday Greening Messages

MySQL and Ubuntu install older versions of Python

A little 'patience and a bit' of google-fu, I found a project on the ppa repository that maintains the old deb packages for Ubuntu versions of Python.

 $ sudo apt-add-ppa repository: fkrull / deadsnakes 
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install python2.4 python2.4-dev python2.5 python2.5-dev


Then can be used with virtualenv using the - python version to indicate, for example:
 
$ Mkvirtualenv - no-site-packages - python = python2.4



links and resources:

https: / / launchpad.net / ~ fkrull / + archive / deadsnakes



HTH,
Sani
