Greetings!
I am running Ubuntu 7.10 as a Vbox guest. It comes with Python 2.5 installed by default. I would like to add Python 2.6 to the box, but when I search for Python 2.6 in Synaptic Package Manager nothing really looks right..?
Is there an easy way to install Python 2.6 on Ubuntu 7.10?
If there is NOT an easy way, can anyone direct me to a tutorial that kind of walks you through it?
Unfortunately I am a Linux newbie and so my troubleshooting qualifications are quite limited, as is my understanding of of how ackages work vs. installing from source, or if you get something with a terminal sudo line..
