home dir install
Posted: Sun Nov 22, 2009 10:35 pm
I've just downloaded and built the new rc (for future reference 1.2.0rc3) on a box where I don't have root access and I wanted to do a home install. I haven't installed anything from source before. So I did:
When I try to run it looks for it's modules in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ but they're in /home/szczerb/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/.
I added ~/usr/bin to my path and bash-completion find the executables just fine. What's the correct way to install in home?
Code: Select all
python setup.py install --root /home/szczerb/I added ~/usr/bin to my path and bash-completion find the executables just fine. What's the correct way to install in home?
