[Gramps-users] Tip on Python 2.5 and Ubuntu Edgy

[Gerald B. <ger...@gm...>]

I'm running Ubuntu Edgy and Gramps.  I wanted to get rid of the
"Database not portable" message, so I installed python2.5.  I still
got the message so I dug deeper and found that /usr/bin/python still
pointed to python2.4.  I changed that link but that broke the upgrade
manager!

After switching the link back to python2.4, I then edited the gramps
startup shell script (just type "which gramps" to find it and changed
the line:


exec /usr/bin/python $GRAMPSDIR/gramps.py "$@"

to



exec /usr/bin/python2.5 $GRAMPSDIR/gramps.py "$@"
