:) Sure you don't like it - It is not targeted towards Cent-OS 5 users... Cent-OS 5 comes with python 2.4 - this can't even run web2py... That's why Cent-OS 5 users MUST install a second instance of python alongside the existing one. For that there is the existing script - afaik it works for Cent-OS 5 users.
Cent-OS 6 comes with python 2.6.6 that is more than sufficient for the grate majority of developers. The amount of breakage that installing a second instance of python can cause to the system can be severe. It's not just that YUM brakes, much of this linux-distribution's os is tightly-coupled with the built-in instance of python. This new version of the script is for Cent-OS 6 users that prioritize the simplicity and robustness of using the existing python, over the flexibility/features of having python 2.7 alongside it. It may be a debatable trade-off from some perspectives, but it is a legitimate trade-off, and one that lots (if not most) developers would prefer. It is not meant to be an "updated version of" or a "replacement to" the currently existing iteration of the script. It very well could be a separate script that people can use for cent-os 6 versions. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
