I wrote an article to explain how to install Python2.4 on Ubuntu

So you're saying that all that has to be done is to put Karmic's
python2.4 package in our Lucid repository, right ? One hack I'd seen
online was simply to switch sources.list to Karmic the time to get
python2.4 and related stuff -- that's definitely too ugly.
No.
It was a specific branch developed for lucid that was abandoned when
they decided to keep 'only' 3 python version (2.5, 2.6 and 3.1).
Ah yes I see, it seems like I drastically overlooked your blog entry.
Indeed, I could install the python2.4 package for lucid.
I'm still a bit concerned about updates and libraries (python-imaging
etc.). We don't want people to think it's as robust as a supported
and
updated package in the official repos. I wouldn't use time checking
Karmic updates, but if someone does it already, that's different.
The advantage of this method is that you keep the ubuntu packaging
system then all additional python packages you will install will be
installed on python2.4 automatically.
I won't enter the details right now but this part doesn't work, I know
why and am a bit pessimistic about it.
On my own, I'm using a virtualenv for each plone/cps project I'm
developing.
Sure, that's always a possibility, but it's somehow more of a
developer approach, that's suited for people working on projects with
custom code.
It's IMHO different from getting a working install and a test instance
right away for people with no python background.
That being said, packages providing helpers to build a virtualenv for
CPS (in the same spirit as what the current opt-zope-cps-devinstance
does) could be a good thing, though.
I'll give it a try as soon as I have a vanilla Lucid installation on
hand, anyway.
Maintaining self compiled versions is too much work to my taste.
CPS is a big piece.
You should work with the Plone packagers as you concern are very
similar.
Certainly, maybe now's the time to work on that severed link. Would
you be so kind to provide us some pointers and/or introduce us to the
right people ?
Have you plan to port CPS on Zope 2.12/2.13 or on pur Zope 3 ?
Let's make a new thread about that.
Cheers,
