wanted: RPM for dual install of Zope & Python
I admit, I'm an utter Linux newbie! For some reason, I can't get the Zope 2.1.6 RPM to find my Python installation. Perhaps I didn't install Python correctly the 1st time, since there is no RPM for it anymore. So, I figure I'll pay $15 for what I'm guessing is 30-60 minutes of work. Full request at: http://www.cosource.com/cgi-bin/cos.pl/wish/info/323 --== Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ ==-- Before you buy.
Here is one of probably many places to get recent RPMs of Python: http://www.redhat.com/swr/i386/python-1.5.2-13.i386.html I'm running the Python RPM and Zope RPMs and all works wonderfully. _______________________ Ron Bickers Logic Etc, Inc. rbickers@logicetc.com

At least one of the products (not sure which, because I've glanced at several) says in its install that python from RPMs isn't built with threads, and threads are req'd, so you have to build python from source. I can't tell if that applies only to the specific product, or the remarks are directed at all Zope operations.

Zope itself does need Python with threads. Although it's certainly true that a binary RPM may not have been compiled with threads, I did check the spec file from Red Hat's RPM above and it does have --with-threads, so the binary RPM will work. To be absolutely sure, you could get the source RPM, check the spec file and build the binary RPM yourself with a single command. This is the way to use your own build options for Python and still use RPM. _______________________ Ron Bickers Logic Etc, Inc. rbickers@logicetc.com
