I installed macpots to both my iMac and my black macbook(both with snow leopard). And use it to install python27, py27-ipython.
It turns out the black macbook worked but my iMac didn't work. I still can only bring up python 2.6 after successfully installed python27. Even I cd to /opt/local/bin and call python, it still brought python 2.6 for me. What I have to do? On Thu, Feb 16, 2017 at 3:38 PM, Elim Qiu <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks a lot Mojca!
