    [Solved] Installing Pyhon 2.5

    Hello Everyone,

    I'm new to Kubuntu and new to the Kubuntu forums. I just switched from Ubuntu out of curiosity and because I like the look of KDE.

    Have run into a fwe glitches and problems, some I was able to solve with the help of Google, but others not.
    I don't know how I should go about asking all my questions, but I will just start with one.

    For a beginning programming book I have that comes with software I need to be able to run Python 2.5.
    I tried installing it through Synaptic, but it broke my system and I had to do a clean install.
    Is it possible at all to install Python 2.5 and use it without detrimental effects to my system?

    The following commands should get the job done:
    Code:
    cd ~/Downloads
#32bit
wget [url]http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.5/python2.5-minimal_2.5.4-1ubuntu6.1_i386.deb[/url]
wget [url]http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.5/python2.5_2.5.4-1ubuntu6.1_i386.deb[/url]
#64bit
[url]http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.5/python2.5_2.5.4-1ubuntu6.1_amd64.deb[/url]
[url]http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.5/python2.5-minimal_2.5.4-1ubuntu6.1_amd64.deb[/url]
sudo dpkg -i python2.5*.deb
python2.5
    Let me know the result

      Re: Installing Pyhon 2.5

      Hi ubuntuku ,

      Thank you for helping. I tried it, but only the python version for 32-bit systems downloads. I'm on a 64 bit system, so that one won't install.

      I get this message from bash. It's in Dutch, it says the file or folder doesn't exist.

      bash: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/poo...6.1_amd64.deb: Bestand of map bestaat niet

        Was able to retrieve both .deb packages using wget here. Not to pry, but what Country are you in?

            @Snowhog : I'm in the Netherlands and have my system's language set to Dutch. I changed the language settings of Konsole to English, but the output still remains in ...Well it's not Dutch, it's more like "Danglish".
            Maybe I have to change the Language settings of my whole system to English? I'd prefer not to.

            Anyway, here is the output I get in Konpython-minimal (2.7.1-0ubuntu5) breaks python2.5-minimal (<< 2.5.5-7) and is geïnstalleerd.sole. It seems to be a dependency problem. Python 2.5 is dependent on libdb4.6, which isn't installed.

            The other important line seems to be ython-minimal (2.7.1-0ubuntu5) breaks python2.5-minimal (<< 2.5.5-7) and is geïnstalleerd.(means installed)

            Please let me know if I have to change my system language. If it's more helpfull I will .



            Code:
            dpkg: vereistenproblemen verhinderen de configuratie van python2.5:
 python2.5 is afhankelijk van libdb4.6; maar:

              Ok, first run the command below to fix the broken package:
              Code:
              sudo apt-get -f install
              Press 'y' to the prompt.

              Next install python v2.5.5-8 from Felix Krull ppa:
              Code:
              sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python2.5
