I am aware of this, as python is not designed to be usable on the CD. This seems to be inconsistant as python was available and did work on 2005.0 In fact, based on this, we wrote installation scripts in python which now will not execute. ...OK I have no intention on making it work on the InstallCD images, as it is not required for doing a normal Gentoo installation. The minimal InstallCD is exactly that. Python being functional in 2005.0 was probably more of an accident than anything else. If you require a complete and working python environment, then I would suggest using the LiveCD image instead, as it is designed for this purpose. |
