Hy guys
last night i was lying in my bed and thinking about something. is
there any linux distro that is primary oriented to python. you know
what i mean. no need for php, java, or something like this. pure
python and containig all the funky modules like scipy, numpy,
boaconstructor (wx of course). something like the python enthought
edition, but all this on a distro included. maybe psql but persistant
predered, zope of course. everything a developer is ever going to
need.
So i stood up, sat down on my ugly acer notebook with a python stiker
on it and made a huge list of cool modles i would prefer. I would like
to make such a distro but i am not a linux pro. so this is going to
stay just a idea. i thouht it should be realy user fredly like sabayon
or ubuntu (without xgel). if this were a live distro it would be
amazing.
I know, dont expet someone else to do your work, but is there anyone
who likes the idea and has the knowledge i dont have.
I also know for quantian (cool distro), but for me, there is too much
other crap and not enough python.
i even got the nam of it. maybee not the best but it fits the context.

From the quoted page:
"""The project is in an early development phase and as of January 2007,
no significant progress was being made due to lack of developer time.[5]"""
well actually i managed to boot unununium in qemu so it _is_ an os
but obviously there isn't much code and the devs gave up so that's why
it _was_ an os project
anyway it was not an os about python, but a desktop os with a highly
different approach from current os-es they just happen to use a lot of
python
there were a lot of interesting ideas so the mail archives might be
useful for anyone who is interested in os development http://unununium.org/pipermail/uuu-devel/ This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I love Python! I've been using it for a couple of years now and have found
it to be a highly productive language. I evangelize it to my developer
friends and am probably responsible for the sale of at least 10 Alex
Martelli books. I am now in the fortunate position of being able to use
Python for a large project, and as such I have a question.

I have just discovered the existance of Puppy Linux which is a complete
operating system with a suite of GUI apps, only about 50 - 60M booting
directly off the CDROM ( http://www.puppylinux.org ).
This approach appears to me very Pythonic, so it were a nice thing to
have a full featured Puppy Linux Live CD prepared for Python programming.
Have someone already breed a Python Puppy and is so kind to share a copy
of it with me?

Installing a Python package is easy, most of time just
"Setup.py install" However, setup.py doesn't seem to support
an uninstall command. If I want to delete a package that I
do not use any more, should I just manually delete the
corresponding sub directory under Lib\site-packages?

I've been trying to install Mailman, which requires a newer version

It's running a ClarkConnect 2.01 package based on Red Hat 7.2 linux.
I downloaded the zipped tarball (Python-2.4.4.tgz), ran gunzip, then

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
