Jza Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 I wonder how safe it is to update my python version to a more current version, and I also want to know how to do it without breaking my whole distro. Is ther a way I can get updates and backported packages for Python in a safe way? Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 You can have multiple versions of python on your system. One will be system-wide which you have in your distro already, and another you can have and run alongside it. I think I did do it once, but on a Debian system, so can't really tell you exactly how I did it now. But it's possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
