Thread: Updating to Python 3.1 to 3.2 in lLucid

i have 2 netbooks, 1 desk top , server on home network. have machines running same version of python. lucid machine repositories seem stuck @ 2.6x , 3.1x ... want them 2.7x , 3.2 consistant.

code:

  $ mkdir python  $ cd python  $ mkdir python32  $ mkdir python27  $ cd python32  $ wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.2/python-3.2.tgz  $ tar xvzf python-3.2.tgz  $ cd python-3.2  $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/python3.2  $ make  $ sudo make install  $ sudo ln -s /opt/python3.2/bin/python3.2 /usr/bin/python32  $ sudo ln -s /opt/python3.2/bin/idle3.2 /usr/bin/idle-python3.2    $ cd ~/python27  $ wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7/python-2.7.tgz  $ tar xvzf python-2.7.tgz  $ cd ython-3.2  $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/python2.7  $ make  $ sudo make install  $ sudo ln -s /opt/python2.7/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python2.7  $ sudo ln -s /opt/python2.7/bin/idle /usr/bin/idle2.7
