I'm afraid I've never tried running this on CentOS but I think you can have Python 2.6 and 2.7 co-habiting on a single server. I found instructions for this at http://toomuchdata.com/2012/06/25/how-to-install-python-2-7-3-on-centos-6-2/.
Note that all 3 Python components (homestead, homer and ellis) all use virtualenv, so once you've installed Python 2.7 you should just need to tweak the "make env" targets in the makefiles to pick up Python 2.7. Please let me know how you get on.

CentOS ships with Python 2.6, but the code implicitly assumes 2.7, for example "make run" fails because there is no argparse module (which was new in Python 2.7). I could remove 2.6 and go to 2.7, but this is potentially major surgery as yum depends explicitly on 2.6. Anyone gone down this path, or have other ideas to share? --keller _______________________________________________ Clearwater mailing list [email protected] http://lists.projectclearwater.org/listinfo/clearwater _______________________________________________ Clearwater mailing list [email protected] http://lists.projectclearwater.org/listinfo/clearwater
