perhaps an rpm -Uvh rather than an rom -ivh is a better idea when upgrading? also try uising the built in tools for upgrading ... these are usually specific to your distribution .. mandrake have urpmi, suse have yast and redhat have something else? tariq -----Original Message----- From: hpinson@indepthl.com [mailto:hpinson@indepthl.com] Sent: 16 January 2005 04:43 To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] Python 2.3.3 vs. Python 2.3.4 Hi. I am unclear of the benefits of using Python 2.3.4 over Python 2.3.3 Could someone please explain? The reason being is that I am having trouble upgrading my Fedora Core 1 server getting the 2.3.4 rpm to install: rpm -ivh python2.3-2.3.4-3pydotorg.i386.rpm Results in many errors and will not install. This is the same method I used to upgrade the Python version alongside the existing FC1 python. I have installed and run Zope 2.7.3 for about two months now along with Python 2.3.3, with no problems that I am aware of (which does not mean that there are none). I have now installed Zope 2.7.4, still with Python 2.3.3, and Zope and Plone 2.0.5 both appear to behave normally. Am I alright continuing to run Python 2.3.3? Or is disaster lurking by not running Python 2.3.4?
