I regularly test packages on my WinXP machine and if they work correctly, I just copy them to the Debian box we're using. Probably not the best way to do things, but so far it works well. I don't think Python adds much to the registry. Mostly file associations and maybe registering that python dll file. I don't think very many of the packages add anything to the registry. The win32 ones might... You can certainly try it. At worst, you'll just have to delete the directory and install the normal way. Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
