Extremely difficult, because nobody who knows what they're doing is going to encourage you to replace ANY pre-installed Apple software. Touching files in /System and /usr (except /usr/local) is primarily reserved for Apple, and changing anything in there is almost guaranteed to break something. Install it to the standard place, and change your $PATH such that /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin. Then when you type "python" you get Python 2.4. That's probably what you actually want, anyway. But in this way i need to reinstall all third part modules.... There is a way to use old modules with python2.4 without reinstall all? (i have all modulen in (Library/Python/2.3)
No! You must reinstall all third party modules that have compiled extensions. Python 2.3 and Python 2.4 DO NOT have binary compatible C APIs.
