Hi Gordon,
Your assumption turned to be true : - (. The file was corrupt (file ...
gave "data" as type, rpm -Vf throwed tons of "missing" errors). After doing
this and trying not to load the module I lost the contact to the server so
my provider had to fsck it; now the server is up again, I still have to
re-check everything.

Re: [CentOS] best way to upgrade from default Python 2.4 to Python 2.6?

The first:
yum install gcc tcl tk sqlite-devel readline-devel gdbm-devel
yum install tkinter ncurses-devel libdbi-devel tk-devel zlib-devel
yum install openssl-devel bzip2-devel
cd /opt
# Python 2.7 so django and mod_wsgi work.
wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/Python-2.7.3.tgz
tar -xzvf Python-2.7.3.tgz
./configure

make

make altinstall prefix=/opt/python2.7.3
cd /opt
# Use a link for easier administration if you need to upgrade python2.7
later.
ln -s /opt/python2.7.3 /opt/python2.7
# Add this alias to your /etc/bashrc file for all users or your ~/.bashrc
file for yourself.
alias python2.7='/opt/python2.7/bin/python2.7'
make altinstall will install the new Python as Python2.7; it will not
collide with your default Python (2.4.x in CentOS 5.x, 2.6.6 in CentOS
6.2). You run it using "python2.7" instead of "python".

The second uses virtualenv as environment manager (
http://code.activestate.com/pypm/virtualenv/). I use it for a particular
application, again no conflict with Python 2.4 under CentOS 5.6/7/8, or
Python 2.6 in CentOS 6.2. These are the versions I have tried.

Hi Michel. This is only to print a sys variable; you don't need to do
anything there. So your default python finds the libuser library, the error
you saw before with import libuser is not coming from this python, at least
as root. Does it make sense to remove pirut and re-install it? I don't use
it, I have absolutely no idea which consequences it may have removing and
reinstalling pirut for software that was already installed under pirut.

Hi Michel. Maybe something related to root / non-root? Or: Can you check
your Python version? Can you enter into Pythons cli (just type python) and
then type "import libuser"? If you don't get an error message, I don't
know. If you do, type "print (sys.path)", one of the paths should be
something like "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/". After exiting the
python cli, you can check if your libusermodule.so can be found under this
path or one of python's sys.path?

Hi Michel. Type python --version on the command prompt. CentOS 6.2 has
Python 2.6.6, CentOS 5.6, 5.7, 5.8 have Python 2.4.3. Epel should not have
installed a different python. Maybe you only need to reinstall the library
so Python recognizes it???

Hi Max. Confirmed: The 2005 html editor plugin for Squirrelmail works under
CentOS 5,8, php53 from the base (I think to remember some modules were from
epel) repository. The problem, at least one of them, seems to be that the
plugin does not recognize neither WebKit based browsers (iMac's Safari,
iPad's Safari, Win7-64 Chrome) nor Gecko-ones (Win7-64 Firefox). In my
Internet Explorer 9 it works, you can see immediately the wysiwyg buttons
from some fsck editor it brings, I was able to send a html mail with IE
that was recognized and displayed as such in Chrome. It seems to be there
is a workaround for those browsers as well:

Hi Max. Testing squirrelmail with php53 (epel) from CentOS 5.8: I just
installed the html editor plugin from squirrelmail (this one from 2005:
http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=209), I activated it, however I
don't see how I could test it, I don't see the usual html buttons, under
"options" I checked some probable boxes but to no avail. How do you know
the plugin is activated? Could you send me a screenshot? It has been a very
long day here, tomorrow night I can make some other tests.

Hi Max. My Drupal notes are here: http://www.geilthings.com/wiki/Drupal
IUS repos: ?. I don't know what IUS means. My php53 comes with the base
repository, some php53 modules are in epel. I think I only used either base
or epel, they may have been under extras or plus. Anyway, only "standard"
repos.
squirrelmail html: Do you mean this plugin:
http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=209 ?. It is from 2005.

Just in case, it also compiles in CentOS 5.8; ncurses-libs is missing

Hi Chris,

In CentOS 6.2:

yum install gmp gmp-devel libtool ncurses ncurses-devel ncurses-libs

yum install libdbi libdbi-devel libtool-ltdl libtool-ltdl-devel db4 db4-devel

(I think I had all but db4-devel pre-installed, not sure now)

cd /opt

wget http://www.sim-basis.de/open-cobol-1.1.tar.gz

tar -xzvf open-cobol-1.1.tar.gz

cd open-cobol-1.1

./configure

make

make check

make install

I have not tested past this; if you send me a small program I could
try to run it.
