Mar 26, 2012 at 11:41 comment added Paidhi The IUS community project looked very promising. But it looks like they stopped efforts. Python 2.6 is the most recent there. iuscommunity.com. I still hope that one day the PSF will start sponsoring a Yum/PPA repo for RHEL/CentOS/Ubuntu.
Jul 10, 2011 at 5:28 comment added bagavadhar @Tshepang, i comparing in terms of time needed/spent for fixing this type of typical case of dependency related issue. I am not saying about depency arasing out of this python package but the original dependency arised to get this particular version of python. I have faced this many times during my initial linux newbie days and have always at the end come to the conculsion that source tar ball is the fastest and hence the easiest way to solve this kind of problem. But that was years ago and now situation have vastly improved with automatic dependency resolution. But still work a try.
