Hi All

I need help in installing python development packages (python27-devel) on Centos5.8. Upgrading hardware is not an option as of now.

I've installed python2.7 in the same machine by $ wget --no-check-certificate http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/Python-2.7.3.tgz $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Python2.7 $ make altinstall

Now I need help in installing python-devel package for 2.7.

$ sudo yum info python2.7-devel gives no info. Whereas the package is there for python26-devel.

Tried many suggestions after googling but still no luck. Any help or pointer for exact steps will be great.

Thanks Alok Bhan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/attachments/20130925/b75d965f/attachment.html>
