For EPEL5, we can install python26 packages from epel repository.
If I read the messages correctly, I believe this will be going away soon.
Really? That's unfortunate.
It would be nice if we can install python3 (python33 or python34) as same as python26.
I'm sure it would be, but EL5 is OLD at this point and not getting much love in the volunteer space.
Yes, but RHEL5/CentOS5 support continues until 2017-03-31 (extended support is 2020-03-31), so I just thought it would be nice. I'll contribute some work if SCL repository is available on CentOS 5.x.
It gets support because people are paying Red Hat to do various support work. Volunteer projects like EPEL, rpmforge, elrepo, SCL's etc rely on contributions of people willing to do the work. When people only take and no longer contribute, it begins to fall apart.
