Python 3.0 RPMs for CentOS 5 (RHEL 5)

You can try package from ActiveState http://www.activestate.com/activepython/downloads. It doesn’t depend on package manager (just unpack and run “install.sh”).

Or you can compile Python and create package by yourself

Here is how to create RPM by yourself:

Here is how you can compile it:

./configure
make
make test
sudo make install    # or "make altinstall"
