[wxPython-users] 2.8.3 Install Procedure Question

[Paulo Nuin]

Hi Daniel

I don't it would answer your question, but I will try. I assume that 
your "default" python (the one you get when running on the command line) 
is the 2.4 version, which will have the site-packages directory under 
some /lib in your system. Now, your python2.5 is on a /opt directory 
which has a site-packages under it (check it to be sure).

I understand that if you run "/opt/python2.5/bin/python setup.py 
install" your wxPython will be installed on the site-packages dir of 
this version.

I am not sure if this is the correct answer. Maybe someone with more 
experience with python installations would answer you.
