Subject: [cobalt-users] Python 2 on raq4
Hello,
I want to use rdiff-backup to back up a raq4:
backup-server <--- raq4
rdiff-backup[1] sounds very cool. However, it needs python 2 which my
raq4 doesn't have.
My plan is to uninstall the raq4's installed python and install some
recompiled python 2 rpms. However, I'm afraid that I might break
something.
I know that a Raq server uses Perl a lot. But do Raq servers also depend
on Python? Case "yes": Does it have to be the installed Python 1?
------------------------
My RaQ550 came with both python 1.5 and python 2.0 pre-installed so
it appears that multiple versions of python _can_ be installed without
causing problems.
