Re: pygtk installs only in python2.4?


"Mark Wendell" <mark dot wendell at gmail dot com> said:
The current python version installed by setup is 2.5. However, it
looks like the pygtk setup package wants to install itself in
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages, even if that lib doesn't originally
exist. For example, installing pygtk through the installer actually
created /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages, and put the pygtk stuff
there. The workaround for now is to roll back to python2.4, and
everything seems to work fine.

It's the same for me. Actually, /programs/cygwin/lib/python2.5/site-packages is empty, except for a README file.

This is a general problem with Python, not with pygtk in particular.
