Sorry for continuous replies. I finally made it. It was quite easy and simple.
I just downloaded the source using wget. Extracted it. Changed directory to the extracted one. Executed "./configure" Then "sudo make install" That did the job for me. Now typing "python" invokes Python 2.6 while I can use 2.5.2 by typing "python2.5". The "--prefix" option was installing the python in "/home/masnun/lib". In that case I was supposed to create a symlink in "/usr/bin" ? Anyway, it's done and I'm having fun with Python. Thanks to all for co-operation. -- Abu Ashraf Masnun Grad Student, BBA, Khulna University. http://masnun.com -- Ubuntu Bangladesh | http://ubuntu-bd.org [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd
