To answer my own question, http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools says that setuptools "for Python 2.3.5 and up on most platforms; 64-bit platforms require a minimum of Python 2.4".
CentOS 4/RHEL 4 have 2.3.4. The solution seems to be to get python 2.4.2 from python.org. Edit 'Modules/Setup' to enable zlibmodule. ./configure --prefix=/opt make su make install And then run: /opt/bin/python ez_setup.py -f http://www.turbogears.org/preview/download/index.html TurboGears I actually like this approach, as the provided python installation is so important to a RedHat system that I don't like mucking with it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
