<> = Installing Python = {{{#!wiki warning This document is deprecated. Please see [[Installation]] instead. }}} How (and indeed, ''if'') you must install Python will vary depending on the operating system you're using. The important point is to confirm which ''version'' you have. Python 2.6 and 2.7 are well-tested. Python 2.5 ''may'' work, but Python 3.x will ''not'' work. You can determine the version in use with this command: {{{ $ python --version }}} == Linux == Python should be installed out of the box on most flavors of Linux. Debian 6.0 comes with Python 2.6, for instance. See your distribution's documentation for more information. == Microsoft Windows == See [[Installation/Python/Windows|Python Installation on Microsoft Windows]].
