I've just tried to do this but have come up against a problem that has
stumped me a little, though I'm sure there's a simple solution (this
will just be down to a little unfamiliarity with how the Python package
system works).

How do I run two different codebases of trac on the same machine at the
same time? I've copied the database (no problem), and I've set up a
different virtual host (again, no problem) but in the vhost
configuration the only way in which I can point apache at the trac
codebase is via the 'PythonHandler' directive, which from what I can
tell looks in /usr/lib/pythonx.x/site-packages, and since I already
have an installation of trac there that I don't want to mess with, I'm
not sure of how to go about getting the second instance working
independently, since it includes other trac packages via absolute
package references (trac.xxx), so simply putting this other instance of
trac into, say, trac2 doesn't work.


I'm certain that I probably just have to do something like set up
another python package path for this new virtual host to look at, but
how this is done isn't obvious to me.

Any hints?

Thanks.
